I have a 2001 male candy cane corn that i'm looking to sell but am not sure what would be a fair asking price. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Where did you get him? Has he been bred? If so what kind of results were there? Size and that sort would help you get a price range. Also pictures, showing his candy colors and the area your selling him in if you aren't willing to ship etc...

I got him from a breeder at a herp show in white plains NY. He has never been bred and is aprox 4 feet in length. i dont have any pics on hand but will take some. I would probably have to sell him locally.

since hatchling candy's will go for between 40-80 depending on the "perfect-ness" (i know it's not really a word, it was just all I could think of at the moment) 100$ for a 2-3 year old non-proven wouldn't be asking too much. And I think some people would even go so far as 150. Others may go higher, But I personaly wouldn't charge more than 100$. But then again, I'm always afraid I'm ripping someone off, maybe others will have a less vague idea for you

males tend to be more plentiful than adult females..and therefore commend lower prices depending on the morph. i would put him maybe at $75, but i can't say for sure without seeing pics. the $75 may seem a bit high, but most reptile ppl will try and get you to come down on the price, but ultimately its up to you..when pricing , don't foregt to add a bit for your time and sentimental value... If i had a snake for 4 years and i had to sell it.. i would not sell it for $30.. stay away from wholesale ppl and jobbers at the reptile shows..they don't care about the individual snake, they just want to buy it real cheap so they make a profit on it..look for an individual person or a breeder that you know will take care of it..if you are looking for another snake, take it back to the vendor and ask maybe for a trade in.. above all follow your gut instinct on as to who to sell it to.
