het pied market

csiviper Dec 05, 2003 10:18 PM

i am just curious, what is the going rate for a 100 % het piebald female. i have some one offering me 300$ for mine.is this price reflective of the market. i bought mine less than a year ago and paid a good bit more than that.

$300 for a !00% het pied female??? what's he smoking?? And what are you smoking to consider it??? Considering if she is an '03 I would say around $2000 would be a fair price. Unless your time and investment are of no value to you tell this joker to take a walk.

My friend just picked one up for $2000, and that was with a discount. Normally they are 2500 -3000 depending on age and size and sex.

Late 02 female at 200 grams? that sounds really underfed. my ball was born in april and is now at 700 grams. start feeding your snakes man. (if it was a typo im sorry, but i dont feel sorry for people who starve their animals)

I would have to agree. I have 6/03 pastel that is 700 grams and a 8/02 het pied female that is 1500 grams. I just hope I get some breeding soon.

well i have to defend my self so people dont think i am starving my animals. i got mine at the end of december and they were born in november. she is now on small rats. i feed every sunday and she has only refused maybe 3 times mainly when she is in shed. i have feed cards on all my animals showing their weekly weight gain. i just weighted her and she is 320gms. well hydrated and no spine showing so i would say that i am doing just fine.

It doesnt matter if no spine is showing...how much weight it around it? how long is it? i feel sorry for the poor thing. If you started feeding it in december and it missed 3 meals.......it should be around 700 grams now...My snake is around born in april, eating small rats now. once again, i hate people to starve their animals. I feel sorry for the poor snake.
