Sunglow Corn Value adult male?

lostsorrow Sep 28, 2008 07:55 AM

Hi all,

A local pet store to me has what they call a sunglow corn for sale by me. I never heard of this morph before. It appears to be paternless and fade from a blood red to bright yellow on the belly. The snake is about 3 foot long.

A sunglow is an amel with no borders around the saddles.

a sunglow is an amel (albino) with little to no white on it.... leaving only reds and oranges.

to answer your question....
It's worth whatever YOU are willing to pay for it.
If you like it and are willing to pay the price being asked then it is worth what they are asking.
If you like the snake but feel the price is higher then you are willing to pay then it isn't worth that price.
If you are thinking to buy it as some kind of "investment" leave it at the store.

It's a question you can only answer for yourself.

Depending on what the snake looks like, I'd pay around 100 bucks for a pet store sunglow. But like Jimmy said, to some extent it depends on how much you like the snake - only you can determine if it's worth the price.

I agree with what everyone else has said. Another thing to consider in value is, how handle-able is it? You will enjoy it alot more if it has been handled enough that it isn't all jumpy when you pick it up, or constantly trying to get out of your hands.
