It looks like he has the het pied marker, so it may be what he is claiming. Het simple recessive males are not worth very much, which is why the price is so low. I know some breeders who sale het males as normals to get rid of them.

Yeah but its a Het Dreamsicle. A 100% Double Het...for 300...on an animal that isnt mass produced? I think this might just be a once in a lifetime good deal. And even if that is just a normal, if those pics are real, thats a hot male normal.

Craigslist is only scary because any sales can go either way. Buyer beware.

i dont think anyone is selling a het lav male for nothing though.

Het lav males are not that expensive. The females are the ones that will cost you. I dont want to say how much I paid, but it was def only a fraction of what the female was.

That's in my area (used to work in Richmond, now in SF)... so if he has papers to prove the genetics, I might take him if you don't! But yeah, I'd be wary of any het off craigslist - unless it was directly from a reputable breeder, like Robert Seib who often advertises on sfbay craigslist.

het LA alone would be 300, I would see a DH being more around 800-1000 atleast.

craiglist people can claim anything they want, don't trust a word he says, unless he has papers you can call someone about, forget it. don't just trust a paper saying it eigher, look it up and call someone, papers can be faked also.

I have gotten some really good snakes for great prices on craigslist, like an adult male spider for $150. That is about half of ones advertised on kingsnake. Just be careful. Maybe you can also ask him why he has such an expensive snake (Why would he advertise on craigslist if he was a breeder?).

I agree male het pieds are cheap but not a double het pied lav...That is way too cheap in my opinion...Why I am going to pass on this one.....

You buy from Allen Belcher but wont even try to see if this is legit? No offense buy you sure find interesting times to play it safe.

The price is low, I think males carrying both those genes are currently selling for around $500-$750.

IT's worth at least asking who produced it etc.

Did you ask for paperwork?
