Albino Leo price

Hi I have not started a new thread for some time.
I picked up a pair of 3 1/2 year old proven breeder Albino Leopard geckos
female is gravid on a trade for around $350.00.
I asked on another site but got no where thought I would ask here better people to deal with. Did I pay to much

cuz I do not see a Albino for sale only hets.
Here is the male

Here is the female

Thanks
Charles

Neat! I love albino leos. I have one, but he has spots that are a lot bigger than yours. I think there may be something else genetic going on with my guy, but who knows. He's mainly a pet. Best of luck with your pair- hope you get lots of pretty babies.

Looks like a fair deal to me.. especially if you are happy with it.

Ron Tremper lists them for right around that much.

Thanks I have always wanted a Albino Leopard gecko but they always were priced high or they were just hets.

I am very happy with them I traded $350.00 in feeder rats so really it cost me rat food ($75.00).
As soon as she drops the 2 eggs she has I need to put more size on them before next time.The male is realy under size to the female for 3 1/2 years old I am just glad I have them and they will be look after properly.

Cheers
Charles

I don't know...I paid $35 for my male albino leo, but that was at a show, and down from the $50 he was asking as an end-of-show between-vendors special.

Well I think it's a fine deal at 75 for a breeding pair of albino leos. I wouldn't pay 350 cash though. They go for I believe the 60 - 100 range here in the Toronto area. Depends on the store though.

Ya I just seen one in Alberta for 125.00 at 1 year old babies 60 to 100 het 25 to 35.
I am not complaining because the rats would have sat in the freezer. Have lots more live like 300 lol

Trades are the best, especially when they actually go through.

There is very few people I would consider trading with, unless it was face to face or the other person shipped to me first.

Yes trades are the best ,me I sooner do trades then cash sale but not every body is the
same. I traded more frozen rats and 3 glass tanks for 8 baby Crested gecko's but really looking for balls now.
