Hi,

I have been breeding jungles for 15 years and I would have to say that a real trophy adult female almost never makes to the open market. Most folks that have such animals are not willing to part with them for obvious reasons, especially as we head into the breeding season. Such animals are worth their weight in gold. I know that when I have a female that is developing into something special (usually 12-18 months of age) I ask between $500.00 - $750.00, on the rare occasion that I consider parting with such a special snake. In the very rare event that an adult trophy female comes to market, she can go for a few thousand dollars and is worth every penny in the hands of a skilled keeper. Good luck.

Will
