Piebalds

[beanersmysav]

Can anyone tell me a few spots where I can purchase Piebald Ball Pythons or some that are hets? I've always wanted a snake and a ball python to be exact but once I saw these at a reptile show I was stunned although I didn't know the morph untill just today and when I found out it was a ball python I was psyched. Now truthfully I wont be purchasing one for 1/2 a year or so untill I get my lizard breeding projects under way but as soon as I get some more room I'd love to buy one and besides 6-7 months of research never hurt anyone . Thanks in advance.

What kind of price range are you looking to spend for your first snakes?

well if its a piebald obviously atleast a few grand but if its a het possibly 1500, 2000 for a pair, but as I've said this will be a few months down the road nothing spur of the moment, and might decide to start out with something a little less expensive to see how things go. I'm sure they'll be fine but I started out years ago which a 50 dollar lizard then moved my way up as I got more experieced, no reason I shouldn't really do the same with a snake, but they are beauties,and I have always wanted a ball.

I agree that they are beautiful, I've just heard that for some reason people have a harder time breeding pieds, although not sure if there's any truth to it... Good luck with it!

The Sutherlands have a beautiful pair of 100% hets for $2,000 sold as a pair only... http://ballpython.com/page.php?topic=available

Might be worth checking out, I've heard MANY great things about them! Check 'em out on the BOI or their website at www.ballpython.com
