Bee pricing questions

[mebigbadbrat]

Hey guys. I haven't purchased a BP since Sheldon, hypo mojave male last April. I have been trying hard to focus on finishing my degree but since I have been doing so well I fugured I could reward myself especially after seeing a female bee at 250 grams for sale for $150. She is a knock out bee too. Very clean IMO. He is willing to go down to $120 just to move her. So have bees really went down that much? Or is this a steal? I recall bees ranging 300-400 but that was before three genes became huge.

Thoughts? Prices?

Thats a great price, make sure she is a she and is clean, healthy and eating well.
The price for a bee is usually $225 - $275.
Good luck!

All of em have a wobble, but some are train wrecks make sure she isnt one, Here in canada bee's are still 500+ for yearling and 300+/- for juvs

Yeah I agree with Corbin, Granted just settled in on my first BP and went the Mojave Spider route, but a Good Bee should be around $400-$550, a pet that you aren't looking to breed and have the best attributes of Spider and Pastels... you can find those Bee's for $200'ish.

Garrick DeMeyer just had a Sale on Bumble bees, but he will negotiate prices, granted might be in the $200-$250 range, but he has great snakes and they are healthy.

Some day I plan to breed but I have an albino boy and a hypp mojave boy plus a big normal girl.

In the future I def want the following:
1. Pastel pied
2. BEL
3. Super Black Pastel or Cinny
4. Albino Spider
5. Hypo something...lesser or pin or cinni...i love dark hypos so they pop.

2 & 3 are not a must have but awesome to look at for compare/contast. The bee could go to my hypo mojave in the long run for het hypos but with 1-3 genes.

She was very clean. I just thought the price is too good to be true or that they have went down so much in prices. A nice combo.
