I saw that too and thought that the price was really low. I didn't buy one, but I am also curious to hear from anyone who did.

I saw that add. I also saw those melanistics on Reptile Classifieds last week and I asked if they were pure Thayeri ...I was informed that they were. I also asked if there were pics of the parents...there weren't. Monday, after seeing the add on KS, I asked what colors the parents were, and if all of the babies were melanistic, or if some were leonis phase/ milksnake phase. Tonight, I got a response that they were all sold.
Maybe I was too cautious. The price was so good and I've been wanting a melanistic Thayeri, I guess it just seemed too good to be true. My loss.

The price was way below market.

I was killing time at work and responded as soon as the ad came up. I was told they were sold already. I figure either they didn't have namy, or someone offered more then the price asked for.

At $50 I figured if they looked like a mix I could always give them to someone I know looking for a pet.
