Ball Python Breeders?

[velvetiine]

The cool thing about my Bamboo Lesser BEL is that it is 'allelic' meaning that if you breed with a Normal you won't get any normals, half will be lessers and half will be Bamboos!

These snakes never cease to amaze me.

Recently, I bought a pastel banana BP for my daughter's birthday (her request). We're both internet junkies, so we spent a lot of time on the internet researching breeders, morphs, and general care. We ultimately decided to buy from a local reptile store. We certainly paid a little more than we would have from an internet vendor or from the reptile expo we attended a few weeks ago, but we gained a valuable resource by purchasing from a local business/hobbyist. Only after purchasing her BP, did I happen run a search for Bally Pythons on Craigslist. I was surprised at the number of people looking to rehome their snakes. There were a few normals and quite a few attractive morphs (including one beautiful banana). So, my point is... Craigslist might also be worth a look.

I have bought 7 snakes from craigslist, and all were healthy and nice. (I got lucky, I admit).
