Hatchlings snakes will be coming on the market very soon.
Most breeders will have eggs now and some will have the early clutches hatching.
Once the hatchlings have shed and had a few feeds they will be up for sale.
Prices will depend on what morph you want and the morphs depend on what snakes the breeders have mated.
Good luck with your search...

Cheers i thought that might be the case as it feels easier to find rocking horse poo... apart from pets at home and such but really wanted a breeder as i know breeders care for the snake not the money (mostly anyways) what morphs are most common as i only know the okeetee and creamsicle types lol

They grow up to be nice and red and orange, yep!
This is mum;


If/when they are feeding and shedding no trouble, I'd think around £20 perhaps

Just for the record, creamsicle is actually a hybrid of corn x great plains rat snake ;) It's most like an amel corn. I could suggest you look at Ian's vivarium http://iansvivarium.com/morphs/species/elaphe_guttata/?sid= to have a look at all the other morphs out there... but that would be mean, as you will come away wanting hundreds rather than just one... :P

Ive been on that site for the past hour... like a kid in a candy shop!! I think it was the butter or topaz i had seen previously but this amel above has caught my eye... i like the motley pattern too but to be honest didnt want to spend a massive amount on the snake

You say this now...
Once you've got one, you'll find out how addictive they are and you'll be starting your own 'morph fund' hahaha

If you like Figs snake and the reddish looking ones you'd be best going for a normal/carolina or an amel.
They do change colour as they get older, so don't be surprised if you see a hatchling that isn't what you'd expect if you ask for a particular morph.
I'd wait until Figs has hatchlings that are ready if I were you. The members on here are great and I would trust and recommend them.
And by the way......welcome to the forum!!!!!

She did, yes
Eggbound and never made it through her surgery...

That doesn't effect the babies in any way mind, just one of those horrible things I suppose
