Here is the thing with Balls: There is a large range of color and patterns in normal Ball Pythons. Back in the day, there was a chance you would find something genetic in a pet store if you looked hard enough. Nowadays, not so much. Everything gets picked through for the most part, before you see it, and usually by more than one person. If you want something a bit odd, for decent prices, check out David Fernandez. He advertises here, and has some really nice dinker animals for more than fair prices.

Remember, every purchase you make from a big retail giant tells them you do not care about quality, just cheap prices. Buy from breeders, local guys, or the good guys on the net. In all honesty, I give away normal and some poss het males to some of the locals. I am sure you can pick up male snakes for cheap or free around where you live too.
