    Check kingsnake or fauna classifieds. This is easy information to gather on your own

    Re: i need some help pricing some morphs. PLEASE!!!

    0.1 piebald
    0.1pinstripe - $600
    0.1 lesser - $600
    1.0 lesser -$500
    0.1 spider -$350
    1.0 spider -$250
    0.1 cinnamon-$400
    0.1 pastel -$300
    0.1 mojave -$400


    This is just a guess really. Breeders will always cost more than the hatchlings, but the breeder males will cost less than the breeder females.

    Re: i need some help pricing some morphs. PLEASE!!!

    For breedable sized animals of those morphs you're going to pay a pretty penny.

    0.1 piebald - 2-3k at least
    0.1pinstripe - $1500
    0.1 lesser - $1500
    1.0 lesser - $700
    0.1 spider - $1500
    1.0 spider - $4-500
    0.1 cinnimon $2000
    0.1 pastel $1000
    0.1 mojave $1500

    Those are the prices I've been seeing breeding size or at least near breeding size animals of those morphs going for on the open boards.

    BPs: 3.9 Normals, 1.0 Spider, 1.1 Pastels, 0.1 100% Het Hypo, 1.0 Cinnamon, 0.1 Pinstripe, 0.1 Albino 1.0 Bumblebee .
    Bloods: 0.1 Marter line red, 1.0 Het T+ albino red.
    Colubrids:1.1 Western Hogs, 0.0.1 Tri-Color Hognose, 1.0 Albino Cal King,

    Those are the prices I've been seeing breeding size or at least near breeding size animals of those morphs going for on the open boards.
    On some of these I would honestly expect at least another $500 tacked on, more noteably the Spider Female, Pinstripe Female, Lesser Female and Mojave female. Why? Because females will always be useful so you're going to end up paying what the breeder wants you to because unless they absolutely NEED to get rid of it (which you should want to question why) and the reason why is if they don't sell say the Mojave female for at least $2K or so they can hold it back and breed it.

    For instance, let's stick with the Mojave Female. And let's say they breed it to a Super Mojave (to keep things consistent) and get an average 6 egg clutch, and the odd gods grace them with the perfect 1.2 Super Mojaves 1.2 Mojaves. Super Mojaves go for $1.5K and Mojaves $250-$300 and if they eggs sell for their current value that makes the clutch worth about $5400 which is $3.4K more than the female herself so really it benefits the breeder to hold on to the animal rather than to sell it.

    Unfortunately this doesn't apply to males because Males can be replaced in 1 generation.

    Recently I saw a breedable spider female selling for $1000, which is just ridiculously cheap considering if you breed that 1 Spider to a Lesser and produce just 1 Lesser Bee, that Lesser Bee is worth more than that person valued the mother of the entire clutch, which is insane.

    Re: i need some help pricing some morphs. PLEASE!!!

    If you were looking to buy breedable animals here's what you expect to see

    0.1 piebald - 5K easy
    0.1pinstripe- 1-2K
    0.1 lesser - 2-3K
    1.0 lesser - 1-2K
    0.1 spider - 1500- 2K
    1.0 spider 500-1K
    0.1 cinnimon - 1K
    0.1 pastel - 1500
    0.1 mojave - 2-3K

    Breedable females are neither cheap or easy to find.. Be prepared to shell out
