    What should I do?

    OK, here's the sinario. I have the opportunity to pick up 2 ball pythons, one is Mojave, the other is high white spider. The guy that has them only wants $100.00 ea for them. My spouse says no we have enough already. I really want to get them and am willing to sell off a couple of the normals that I have now to make room for them. For this price I can't see passing them up. What do you all think?

    Are they males? Have you seen them in person? Sounds like a good deal, but I would be careful if they are that cheap as sometimes there is a reason. Good luck.

    That's a great price as long as the snakes are healthy and taken care of. I would have no trouble trading up personally. If they are males, then sell your males. If they are females, sell a male and a female. Just my thoughts...

    Hi,

    But definately get pics and try and find out why they are being sold so cheaply.

    Before you sell your snakes would be best.

    And make sure you can quarantine the new arrivals well enough.

    Otherwise you could be asking for a whole pack of trouble.

    I've sold several decent spider males for $85 each, $100 for a male spider isn't a HUGE deal.

    If you want the spider it's not a bad deal but it isn't an uncommon price for a spider male.

    That spider is a low white by the way, this would be a high white...
