Angolan Care Sheet?

[Mochelem]

Im curious about the care of Angolans, Im thinking of getting one but Id like to make sure Ive got a good setup for it....

I know they're uber-expensive.

$2000 thats not that bad when you think about some of the BP morphs out there

Just like ball pythons im pretty sure.

I keep mine the same as my balls -- tho you'll probably want to get a bigger cage down the line for an adult.

Ahh..ok...I guess I remember seeing them going for more than that somewhere. May have been Daytona (shrugs)...oh well, Ive been mistaken before.

That could have been one of those angolan/bp hybrids, those things cost a crazy amount of money!!

Males go for about $900-$1000 Females are rarely sold separately but nowadays you see them more often asking price is usually around $1500 give or take a few hundred. Yeah some people are still going by the 2005 pricing of $4000-$5000 a pair but realistically you can find them much cheaper without really even trying.

I love angolans, I can't wait to own one.

I too am wondering is there a real care sheet and where do I find out about breeding them. I just purchased a male 08 and a female 06. I am trying to figure out if next year is a safe bet to breed like ball pythons do. Any ideas? And if you really want to get a pair haggle the prices. The economy is down and breeders are willing to sell. You just have to make it worth their time they invested. I will tell you one thing though. If you are only buying one get a female first. Alot of people won't part with a lone female but it will be worth your time to look around and bargain with breeders to get one. Reason being if you get a male first you have to wait that much longer if you get a baby female the following year. Good luck. Mystic Reptiles has some 08 pairs and C.A.P.P. Inc is heavy on females that just hatched out. Good luck in your search.
