Hey guys, im an aspiring ball python breeder, and im contemplating breeding a clutch or two of burms as well. Unfortunately I have no idea of how theyre priced in general, much less the price of Hets and visuals. I got my Juvenile female normal for $60 on craigslist, but the guy told me I was paying a fraction of what she was worth. I didnt have any sort of referance point to go off so I just nodded smiled and said awesome XD.

Anyway, Im considering adopting a signifigantly older (POSSIBLE) male Albino also from craigslist, and im not sure what the going rate is for them, so I dont know what to send the guy as an offer(either by himself or with enclosure). Im also wondering how I should price the 100% Het albino hatchlings I would be producing. Google was very not helpful.

I am aware that breeding larger snakes is a different ball game, and takes another set of knowledge and skill. Ive done a lot of research and I do think I am up to the task. I am also aware that burmese pythons can be incredibly difficult to sell at times do to the law preventing them from crossing state lines, and I am prepared to keep any and all burmese pythons I produce until finding them a suitible home with responsible owners. I breed my own food scource, and have the knowhow and space to make size appropriate enclosures.

What im really looking for is any tips you more experienced breeders would have for a fledgling such as myself, and a basic rundown on prices so I dont undersell my hatchlings, or cheat anyone out of their money unknowingly. Thanks for reading guys. Im glad to have everyone here on BP.net as such an amazing rescource of information and perspective.
