the classifieds, here at Kingsnake and at fauna

snakebroker.com

and prehistoricpets.com

I am sure they should have something that you are looking for.

Or wait until a reptile show and see if Mark and Kim Bell have any to sell. Last year when I was at the NARBC show in Chicago they had lots of blizzards and patternlesses and also albinos, but I didn't get anything from them, I just looked.

not many well known breeders have them, most of the good breeders are after carrot-tails and stuff like that. check www.knreptiles.com, they may have some for sale, and they have very nice animals.

Is there a reason why everone is after carrot tail cause i have noticed that that is what most peple are selling.

Thanks
Eric

because they are amazingly beautiful, and they can be improved upon. they can strive to make better and better carrot-tails, while blizzards can only make more blizzards that look just like all the other blizzards. its not only carrot-tails, its the hypos and super hypos too. i would be in them if i had the money to get nice ones.

geckoman2000 May 26, 2003 02:49 PM

Ok i understand that cause i think they are very nice. How much does a baby cost? Will they ever go down in price?

Thanks
Eric

they vary in price greatly. the cheapest ive seen for a baby was $100. but with a baby its always a risk. the price will go down, because there will be so many of them. but they will kepp getting better and better until they cant anymore, which is a long way off.

These to arent carrottails but the male is a hypo and the female is froma hypo line and i payed $40 for each of them and they only got better with age....if you buy them young they are cheaper than if they are sub-adults.....

heres the male.....i bought him from garrick demeyer@ crestedgecko.com

and here is the female she is from monica and charles@ masterpiecegeckos.com

when i bought her at 1 month old

Yea, they are very expensive, I have seen them listed for hundreds of dollars. Too expensive for me.

they are the founders of the Blizzard Lizard and have drastically lowerd their prices this year. You can by baby blizzards for $42, a trio of baby blizzards for $110, and a 10 lot of baby blizzards for $375. I don't think they have any adult or sub-adult blizzards right now, but about a month ago they had a 1.10 group of 30 gram sub-adult blizzards for $650, a very reasonable price. One of the forum users hear, I believe jwilly, bought a 1.10 group of albino/blizzards and he was very happy with them and were very healthy.

How is the aggressiveness of your blizzards. We had a discussion down below...I found a 4 inch blizzard, but it hissed and bit me 3 times when I put my hand in. The 2 leos I have now are extremely tame...I am looking for a leo that will be tame. I was curious as ot what you though about the aggressiveness of the blizzards, thanks. Also, I didn't check, and I'm sure it was on the site, but how does the shipping work? I have never bought a leo off the internet...I have only been involved with leos for about 2 months, I have currently have 2 of my own leos, and I feed them from my hand, and they are very tame. Just curious as to how soon they get shipped and the cost of shipping...Thanks.
