Right, been asked to make an offer on a pair of Hoggs that I want-
Male is 2010, from a good breeder
Female is 2009, from a very good breeder
I couldn't price a snake if my life depended on it, I don't want to offend the seller and I don't want to embarrass myself....
So, what prices for each individual snake, and what price for the pair?
Cheers |

I've seen adults go for £100-£200 each, females cost more, I paid £150 for a very good looking baby. You don't want to pay over the odds but if you think of breeding potential and potentail earning from that breeding then you can't go wrong. I'd go for around the £200 mark. |

Thanks Lota, but it doesn't matter now, I've got the 2 for £130 including a 2 foot viv for the male.
Trying hard not to dance around the lounge and distract the OH from the Formula one.... |

Good luck to you and I hope you get your pair of Hoggs. Personally I couldn't breed snakes, my ickle Bloodred is just for me and when I get my other 2 they'll be just for me too lol. Hope you get them :) |
Dakota ~ Bloodred Corn ~ Amber & Chloe ~ Cats Mind is changing on snakes I want now lol so am researching these to find out what would be best - Milk Snakes and Dwarf Boa possibly - Crawl Cay, Sonoran, Tarahumara or Vera Cruz and poss a Hoggie, African House and Rat snake. Also Trinket Snakes. |

Thanks guys, the seller is being very generous indeed, I'm currently trying to convince him to let me collect them rather than him deliver so I don't feel like a total rip-off merchant lol |

Well I'm going over to pick them up tomorrow so I don't feel quite so bad...
Spent last night organising housing for the female, rewiring plugs and getting stats set up. The viv I am getting for free is for the male becuase he's a year younger. Not long now!!

Brilliant! I know how your feeling, I'm just waiting on my new snakes to arrive soon :D
I just went out and bought an extra rub today as it seems I can't count and didn't have enough!
Edit: seems I can't spell either |
