Re: Bittersweet Day (New Arrival)
Congrats on the retic.
I am not against trades by any means, but 6 BPs for 1 reric sounds a bit one sided. Looking at the value of the animals, you may have gotten the short stick on that one. Pretty much all of my BPs are worth 1 baby retic. I know that because I recently got a retic (an SD tiger at that) and he cost the same (if not a little less) than my banana mojave male BP.
I mean...if it was 6 normal balls, maybe...but still. I just hate to see someone get screwed.

Depends a lot on the morph. A normal baby SD here sells for $300 but a purple albino is $1000-1300

Would a lavender albino tiger be about the same then as a purple albino? I bought my baby girl for about $250. She's the lavender albino tiger. We're hoping to breed her with our tiger retic when they're both old enough, but she's not a purple albino

But if anyone asks, I only have 1. The rest just showed up for the house party.

That I don't know, I'm only going off what a Canadian retic breeder is selling his for. Prices up here are different then south of the border. A 68.75% tiger het purple is $400

No, she's a lavender albino tiger. I don't know what she's het for. She's a pretty girl, but we didn't spend the $1000 price tag for her; she was originally priced at $500.

I'm asking about the tiger, not the lavender.. Quite obvious a Lavender won't be het for albino, being albino already.

Thank you! (: In our area just a normal Retic is going to average the 400 range. And there's obviously a huge market for BP's but even the 2 morphs we had were inexpensive to come by. Each of their perspective retail value (I hate to use the term retail value on animal) came a little under the 400 mark.
