Great looking snake!



From the looks of the BP market, you'll definitely see them in that range within 2-3 years... Good for pet only hobbyists bad for breeders... Hey I won't be complaining though!

I disagree...good for EVERYONE.

Right now the BP market is in an adjustment phase. It's pretty well known that there is a TON of demand just waiting for the 100-500 price points for many of the ball morphs. For 99% of the people out there, its unrealistic to spend $1000+ on a snake for a pet...a lot of breeders are having trouble finding willing buyers for the really high end stuff right now.

Just by the comments of a few in this thread and others on this board, I see a lot of statements like "once the price gets down to this I'm getting one!" just supports my belief that ball pythons are going to EXPLODE in popularity once the prices for them are more realistic for the masses. For me, that's exciting, and as a hobbyist breeder, I've got a small albino breeding group that will be poised and ready to meet that demand.
