Okay.

So I'm probably going to end up selling my corn snake due to my going to Europe. Even though I don't want to. It'll be expensive to board him.

I was wondering how much an adult corn snake goes for? I'm not sure if it's male/female, but I'm pretty sure it's a male. Amel. Excellent feeder, NEVER had a problem. Aprox 4.5 long.

So... How much should I be asking for this fine specimen? Ball park figures?

Thanks.

Males I would say $100-$150 (depending on size, age, proven breeder or not, what the colors are like)

Females I would say $200+ It might look expensive but the buyer can do the math. If the female lays 10 eggs, even if you wholesale them at $20 a piece that is your investment back. Now if you hold them back and resell them at market value ($40 which is pretty low...I sell mine for $55) and that is $40 x 10 that is already at least $400 which is making your investment back plus feeding bill and a bit of extra bucks~~)

So in my opintion
Males $100-$150
Females $200-$300 for amels~
