Baby morph prices and availability?

[LARM]

I'm looking to get 2 pythons within the next month and I've been looking online and can't seem to find many baby morphs. And when I do, they're extremely high priced.

What is the chance of me picking up something like an orange ghost/Hypomelanistic/Pastel for under $100 each? Is that realistic?

I'm going to wait until the reptile show in New York before purchasing as I think I'll get the best deal there. Thanks for the help.

You will not be able to find any ball python morphs for under $500. The market on bp morphs is very high priced as you said.

good luck! Maybe just find yourself a unique normal baby and wait for morph prices to drop some more of the next couple of years.

Is that realistic?

No. Not when there are people willing to give breeders a lot more for them. Sorry.

Slim to nil? Ball morphs are expensive. The cheapest visual morph would probably be a male Pastel which will run you about $500. If you want you can take the long way to a morph and pick up a heterozygous male albino or hypo for about $150, and you may be able to find one a little cheaper, but that's about it in your price range.

You could pick up a pair of het albinos for around $650.. in three years you could be hatching out a clutch with albinos in it.

you could get some black backs or striped or some kind of aberrant for $50 -$100 each.

Ok, I'm curious. What exactly is a morph? I'm not new to pythons just new to the terminology. Anyway pardon my lack of knowledge. Thanks
