    Pastel Lesser Male

    I am looking to purchase a male Pastel Lesser. I have seen such a wide range of pricing. What is the average price I should actually pay and why is there such a difference in pricing?
    Thanks! Melissa

    difference in pricing will come from a few things:

    • sex
    • age/size
    • quality
    • supply and demand locally to the breeder


    I'd say somewhere around $500 is reasonable for a female, males a bit less maybe

    Re: Pastel Lesser Male

    I have been watching and taking note of the prices. All snakes I have been looking at are approx. the same age. Just noticed there was a pretty good price difference.

    Big name breeders generally are about the same price wise, but when you get onto things like kingsnake you will always see a good amount of price fluctuation because there are no set prices for certain morphs... people most of the time will stay in what is considered normal for that morph but they will also base their price based off of personal factors as well.

    Re: Pastel Lesser Male

    I've never seen a pastel lesser as low as $500, unless it was maybe for a quick sale...i think the norm, depending on male or female is $600-750 or so.

    Florida reptile room is a great breeder local to me, they aren't huge but have good quality animals.

    Your probably right, I've seen a few at this price so I personally would try to find one in that price range myself... but that doesn't mean that it is the normal price
