Deserts are beautiful little snakes. but I can't seem to find any breeders that have any. Any recommendations? I know it's one of the older morphs so they should be out there right? Any idea what they go for these days?

Thanks. Mike

Mike,
You're right - the deserts are a great morph. If you check the ball python classified section you should find several desert and desert crosses for sale. If you don't see any - you can search by name at the bottom of the page. Also, some of the breeders who have banners on this site should still have them for sale as well.
Good luck with your quest.

Thanks John. I wasn't seeing too many but I'll keep looking. Just saw one on Youtube in a video that the CrestedGecko posted. Beautiful.

We have only hatched a few clutches of Deserts so far, the vast majority of Desert clutches are still to hatch, so we haven't even started rolling on our Desert season.

Contact me directly and I can send you an expected hatch list of all the different crosses we have going this year.

Robyn,

I understand that you guys are expecting to hatch out Desert X Desert clutch . From what I understand we have not determined whether the desert is a dominant or codominant gene trait.

Can you please tell us when we might expect this clutch to hatch. We are all very excited about the outcome.

Thanks Brian Gundy

Dan Wolfe has a couple. Boas & Balls does too.

Mike, I was just talking to s friend of mine about Deserts the other day and unless someone is keeping it a super big secret I would put my bets on there not being a Super Desert.. They have been working with them long enough that if there was a Super I think we would have seen them already. Wait until later in the season if you can stand it. It will be a later baby but the price will drop even more I would think. I have seem them from $2300 to $3000 right now so buy the end of the season I would think the price will dip under $2000. Maybe just wishful thinking on my part but hey, If you wait I dont see the prices going up on them.. Just my thoughts.. Jay
