Breeding?

coastalherper Apr 10, 2005 08:24 AM

Hi,

I am very interested in breeding an adult pair. But i'm not sure what morph. What morph do u guys think sells and looks the best and is not very expensive?

Thanks
Steve

Cheap good sellers are going to be a problem. There are so many regular old corns being bred today there arent enough buyers for them. Personally, I would go with a little less common snake to try breeding...you will have a better chance of selling them. However, in doing this you're going to spend quite a bit more for them, esp. an adult breeding pair. my reccomendation would be to find some nice not so common corns as babies, raise them, hten breed if you feel that you just have to.

In my experience the first time buyer isnt going to buy a high dollar morph. Most people want color. First timers are usually going to gravitate to the Amels, or Candycane looking corns. People are always fasinated by Snows also. These are all inexpensive snakes you can begin with. I cant speak for everyone on this, but I do know a Snow was my first snake.
