I was wondering were i can find sub adult females like 500-800 grams besides the classifieds. Any ideas is appreciated

Have you checked in your local papers. It would also be a good idea to know how to properly sex them yourself... some of the people wanting to get rid of their pet bp have no idea about the sex of their pet.

I completely agree. Knowing how to properly sex a ball pyton could end up being very beneficial. I bought a 2200 gram female out of the paper this year that was labeled as a male, but In probed her and guess what.... SHE has fed EVERY week on 2 large rats and is now over 3,000 grams for $65. She was treated last winter for parasites just in case, and has been one of my most prolific feeders ever. For $65!!! This summer I bought a female from a pet store that was 1600 grams. She is also an unbelievable feeder. I got her, and the 55 gallon cage with stand and all accessories for $100. I sold the cage and accs.. for $100 to another local pet store with a male hatchling we produced. Basically, I got a 1600 gram female, that eats like MAD for free. Check the papers, and keep an eye out at the local pet stores. Deals are out there, but you have to look for them..
