Because they are so common like corns now.

I want to get into boas myself, but I won't be getting BCI's unless they are TOP of the line. Just no point anymore unless you really love them as a species. Lots of people breeding BCI's lately, and they can be had cheap almost anywhere.

What we need more of is insane clean BCI's and morphs.

Well, I myself do not own BCI's but unless you can show they came from pastels, then its hard to sell them unless they are CLEARLY outstanding looking as anything other than normals. That's just the way it is. Now, you might have screaming pastels, in which case they should sell fairly quickly if your price is right.

I am sure the keepers and breeders of BCI will have better insights to share with you.

I am just saying that if they are indeed pastels, buyers will know it with a simple pic and will pay appropriate prices.

If your price is already low yet none are selling, double check with other breeders to see how high or low qaulity yours are, and adjust. See what others sell true pastel BCI for. Look at pastel pics on other forums. The price accourdingly.

We need A) MUCH bigger pics, and B) Pics that show the tail. What determines if they are pastels is if they have almost no black, especially in the tail. Most BCIs have very black tails, but pastels have very little speckling.

Also, have you considered that you can't sell them because you're not willing to ship? At least your ad doesn't say so. You will never sell anything in this country until you learn how to ship. Just my thoughts.
