To be honest, £500 isnt THAT low. Given this years current prices and then take into account the inevitable drop in value next year, due to people breeding their own, they will be down lower than £1000. Henry Batten is getting females in for £840 (I know, I had mine arrive today!), and CB UK07 are about £900.

Me and Timberwolf should have some of our own albinos available next year, and we will be offering them at a fair price.

Yes, you will sell albinos for £500 each, and I understand your reasons for selling them so low, but people WILL think that there is something dodgy, it's human nature to presume if something sounds too good, it generally is.

None the less, good luck mate, keep me posted, albinos are one of my fave royal morphs, and I'd be interested in some just as different blood in the future.

I dont think there is anything wrong with selling them at £500 as its not as if you will have many to sell as the average clutch is 4.

Once your lot are sold people will look elsewhere and will have to pay the prices they are going for.


Good on ya, it will be nice to see some people get their hands on a morph that is out of reach to most people due to their budgets.

As i said the money isnt the issue, and i would be sorry if i annoyed any other breeder, but i would rather the snakes went to nice homes and be cared for than have lots of money for myself. (Sorry to any albino royal breeders out there).

Thanks for the reply though.

There is nothing wrong in asking for the market price AND making sure they go to a nice home.

Thanks for all the replys guys.

Pete Q
I agree with you, and at no point have i said anything against the way things are done elsewhere, this is just the way i would do things, each to their own i surpose. And as talltom69 has stated i will not have lots of babies, so i will have really no competition in the market as im a small breeder, and once the babies are gone their gone. And i will do my very best to ensure they go to good homes.

Thanks very much
Natalie
P.S. Pete Q, good site

I think that next year £500 might well be a reasonable price since CB07's have been selling from £750 so 08's will be cheaper still

I think its kinda nice that someone would sell something like that with a decent home higher up the priority list than a big profit. Most people we have bought from dont care where it's going so long as they get that cash in their hands. Also i think its great that someone actually thinks about making something like that available to people who dont have the kind of budget to afford them. I know theres a lot of pets i would kill for but just dont have the money to buy them cos rent and feeding the ones we already have comes first!
