for a poss het male you would probably be paying close to normal price wich up here in Canada is about $125 - $150 for it. For a female 66% though would most likely be sold for $400 at least I would guess. Many don't sell their poss het females, better off to prove them out and then sell them.

66% males might run $150?.......real 100% het pied males run $250 and up so go for the 100% male

females will run you more like $700 not .......$400.......

.......I bought 2 this year from Ted at Susquehanna Ectotherms.......they are so sweet...all the "markers" and all and an appetite to kill..........

From Canada to the US, a male het pied here is $350 - 400, normal males sell from $100 - $150. Barely ever see poss hets for sale but I figured if poss het albinos are being sold for $200 - $250 then poss het pieds would be at least double that. I would have issues paying $700 for a possible normal and I think a lot of people feel the same way, wich is probably why there aren't a lot of poss het females offered.

I wouldn't pay $700 for a possible het pied female (hatchling), maybe $400 but no way $700 - Heres the way I look at it - if I pay $700 and it turns out to be normal - I've pissed away $700. Whereas I can just spend an extra $700 and get a sure thing.

Make sense?

sure things are $1800 .......

and if I paid for 2 poss hets and one turns out to be really het then I got a good deal........

66% run $700 here.......

I didn't say I paid that --but I have friends...and yes they were going to be sold for $700 if I didn't want them.....

you don't see them for sale due to the fact that they are sold to friends that live around the area of origin alot of times?...

and also you don't see them alot due to the fact that all the breeders that have alot of het and poss het females use pied males to breed them and therefore the normals are 100% het babies......

........you only make 66% hets till a male homo morph grows up........?.....right........
