What time of year do you get the best deals? I want to pick up about 5-6 BP.

I heard the summer time from the pet store.

Probably late spring through summer when all the babies are hatching...

Agreed. I've gotten the best deals during big shows like Daytona and even better at Myrtle Beach

With more and more people breeding year round i think things have changed. If you watch kingsnake and see when animals are hanging around online longer id say between december and march are the best time for deals. Thats the time of year sales are down therefore more wiggle room. Also depends on size of animals. But this is the time of year where you will get the better deals. Once tax time drops prices tend to get steadier.

Interesting thoughts but I would still think spring/summer would be best. Seems like most babies are still hatching that time of year, and with the supply up, prices should be down...?

The big boys who sell in high volume would probably be able to give you a solid answer...

Yea as far as babies go you can pretty much get good deals anytime but babies take so long to grow up and use for projects. If you want animals with size its a little different.
