All depends. They will be in line with US prices. Last year they were $15,000 so around £7,500. I'm guessing around £5,000. Now there are MANY very poor ones about, yellow blotches everywhere and even black scales (paradox). If I have any pure whites or very clean and let them go then they could be more. Any that are poorer quality could be less. Mine are from very clean animals though so I'm hoping they will be really nice ones. Time will tell.

TBH i dunno if you'd get em from NERD cuz kevin works very closely with Darren he'd probably refer you to him.

Help....

Tar, Craig.
Texas Ratsnakes aren't as bad as their reputation. They're a bit snappy as youngsters but calm down very well with handling - I have a couple that I will hand to anyone, they're soft as!
You don't want to be putting them in with corn snakes, as they can interbreed - it's always best to keep any snakes smaller than breeding size alone anyway (reduces risk of dangerous underage breeding of female/rape amongst males).

At last someone without lucy glasses on answers the question and addresses the potential problem.
