The real high end (bright pink) ones go for 100-120 bucks. Though you might find some at the reptile shows for a little cheaper.

Well, there are MANY types of pink snows, ghosts etc...out in the market now, and it is extremely dificult to know exactly which gene is responsible for the pink, and how intense it is. There are all sorts of different names too, and some of the totally different coined names are applied to the exact same thing..LOL! There are some VERY expensive pink snows and ghosts, as well as even normal type very pink strawberry's linked to the hypo gene. All the pink snakes now can really be "head-scratchers" as to exactly what gene is responsible, or if it is simply an older line-bred trait that is responsible for the pink coloration.

These pink corns can be VERY, VERY expensive, or very resonable, it really depends on so many things.

Salmon snow, bubblegum corn(not the ratsnake), pastel corns, Neon pink, Coral snow, etc...LOL!. These are just a few of the names......they literally go on and on, and so does the price ranges.

Anyway, good luck finding a nice one that fits your taste and price range.

Yeah Doug is right. I've seen some Coral and Salmon snows advertised fot over 1,000 dollars. I don't think there's a line of people standing to get them but that's the price. Others are more in the reasonable range of 100 or less. Bottom line is if you find a snake you really like and you are willing to fork out the cash then get it. Prices should fall a bit as everyone races to produce the Pink Pretties!
