I think £100 quids a lil steep to be honest mate but i guess if theyre hard to get in your area obviously that will be reflected in the price have you looked to see if any of the breeders here eg pro corns have any cost of the snake plus courier im sure would be less than £100

Stripes are always exspensive, I really want a butter stripe but only ones I've seen are around £150 so will be waiting a while lol.

I don't know about bloodred but I would pay that if I liked it, not easy to find and missing out for the sake of MAYBE saving a few quid on something that will be with u for such a long time doesn't make much sense to me lol

Haha don't thank me yet that might be bad advice, I'm just guessing if u did find them cheaper it wouldn't be by much and it wouldn't bother me as long as I was happy with the little guy :)

You gotta decide if it's actually a bloodred or just a diffused.. That would have a big difference. A diffused stripe that's definitely too much, but for a BLOODRED stripe with those hets, I think it's not that ridiculous..

lol good question, bloodred is selectively bred diffused corns if I remember right? but seems a lot of ppl use bloodred to describe normal diffused, I have seen things that are het for bloodred but I wouldn't of thought that was possible?

Theres not a hell of a lot of difference between diffused stripe and bloodred stripe from what I can see,probably because they are both the same. The only difference being bloodred has been line bred to produce a more intense even colour. Although spotting the difference in a stripe may prove more difficult.
If you're worried you may end up with a striped normal though,there is a big difference.
