I'm new here, but read enough to understand a little bit.Originally Posted by WaRocker
So I must be out of the loop and /or just the new guy..
What the heck ya spending that kind of money on a Python for?
Mine cost 79.99 which was a bit high I was told. Why would you spend that kind of coin? I must be lost ???
I know I see some of the coloring is pretty cool looking but come on... Remember I am a new one to this..
Some of the pythons morphs that are available are brand new morphs. From what i've read, breeding morphs hasn't been around that long, and again, a lot of them are newer and hard to find. Some of the new morphs don't have many adults yet because they have only recently been developed.
I paid $70 for my ball python as well, but i'm gonna be buying more this summer for $300-$400 for a breeding pair. Some of the morphs like Albinos don't cost as much because they have been around for a while and aren't as hard to make.
The snakes i'm getting are 100% Het Albino, meaning when they make babies in a few years, they will be albino babies. 1 Albino is worth more than 2 100% Het Albinos, so when the albino babies come, i'll make the money back from my snakes. (Years later of course, and It probably won't cover the time and money I spent keeping them, but I will get the satisfaction of having my own Albino ball pythons.)
*If i'm wrong about any of this information, please correct me, but that's what i've gathered being around the forums for a couple of weeks.*
