66% possible het pied HELP

[AnthonySantor1]

I have the importunity to buy a pastel 66% possible het pied a bumblebee 66% poss. het pied and a pinstripe 66%poss het pied from a local breeder there all males . bottom line he wants 1000 for the lot. i mean i have the money but should i take the deal?

I personally don't buy possible hets.

I don't like to gamble, so I'd rather spend the extra and know that I'm getting what I want to get.

Unless of course you don't care about the snake being het. Pied, and you're just going for the pastel, bumblebee, and pin morphs. Which brings me to my next point, if you buy a bumblebee male why would you bother buying a pastel male? I suppose if you have breeding plans where you don't want spider to pop up, that would be logical, but if I had a bumblebee I'd probably not have a pastel (not that I have either).

Also, I'm not sure if that's a good price, as I'm in Canada and the prices for each morph are very, very different across that invisible dotted line!

I would just go for the Bee poss het pied, and that's only if I trusted the seller poss het's are a gamble especially when you buy from Joe Shomoe.

I'd buy poss hets from a reputable source.

Your better off getting a Pastel 100% het pied.

I personally wouldn't pay $1000 for the lot, if they were 100% het then I might bite but 66%'s I think not.

I would be more willing to pick them up for around $750 but still hesitant.

IMO you are just buying a male pastel (75.00 average ) a male bumblebee ( 350.00 average have seen lower ) and a male pinstripe. (Average price under 150)
Alot of variables. Size, health, color. morph quality
each vary so much. The sad thing is many people try to sell poss het. Even though there isn't even a chance of it being het. So they label it poss het hoping to sucker or entice someone to buy. And when it fails to prove they simply say it was only a poss het..
unless u know the breeder and know their integrity level. I would only view a poss het as a normal

[Mike41793]

No you should not take it bc thats not a deal. The fact that hes marking them up by so much just leads me to think that theyre not even 66% het pied and just normal morphs that hes trying to make a buck off of. I wouldnt pay more than $700 for all 3 of them. Also i wouldnt stock up on males if you plan on breeding.

That'd be a great deal for girls, if you had some real verification of the genetics. If they were all girls, you could prove out all with one pied boy.

All boys, well, you gotta use one girl to prove out each snake. Not the best use of three pied females or even three confirmed hets, IMO.
