    Price question super dwarf super tiger

    I have someone local wanting to do a trade for some of my snakes. In the deal is a male super tiger super dwarf retic. They claim to have gotten it at a show three and a half years ago as a hatchling for $600. I'm not up on retic prices but that seems low for a super dwarf let alone a super tiger back then. Anyone know what they would have gone for then?

    I don't know what they would have gone for then, but up here at least the prices seem all over the place - on the low end of prices I've seen normal male sd's pos. het albino going for $100 and albino clutch-mates going for $1000, so...

    But to echo what was said above, $600 seems SUPER low, even for today let alone back then.

    Prehistoric Pets has super dwarf tiger (not super tiger) for sale for $600. If I were you I wouldn't buy. It's probably not a super dwarf.

    Just find out its size, at 3 1/2+ years old you'll know if its normal, dwarf, or SD.

    But it could be six months old and they are just saying it's three and a half. I just emailed him back and asked if he has paperwork and who he got it from.

    Re: Price question super dwarf super tiger

    it is my understanding that there is no morphs of sd retics. so i would have to say that the snake in question is at best half sd. so if you're wanting an animal that will stay under the 10' mark this is probably not an animal you want regardless of the price.

    Are you sure I've seen lots of "SD" morphs on Kingsnake. They were very expensive though so they probably aren't as popular but I think they do exist. I don't know why they wouldn't.

    sd retics are local based. they come from just 2 or three different island. as i understand it all the sd morphs availible are from breeding sd to mainland or dwarf morphs that result in smaller than normal retics but still much larger than true sd tics
