|
|
Hi all. My friend is interested in getting an 08 hatchling royal. She would like a Pastel but would love any morph. She lives near Truro in Cornwall and says its hard to get hold of snakes around there. So i said id post on here as i know a lot of People on here are breeding and would prob get a better deal than in shops and would give her great advice/ info if needed. Ideally she wants to spend up to £200 on the snake.What morph could she get for this? Any help is greatly appreciated. Many thanks. Paul |

Hey huni, Thank you!
Yup.. I'm after a Royal. I would have posted myself sooner, but due to being really busy with website designing and actually forgetting my password, never got round to it.
So, I've got two corns and looking for something a little different. Not into ten foot long snakes and higgy hasn't stopped talking about his little treasure Stumpy, now I'm hooked on royals and want one too.
Hoping some of you can help out a little in my search for a good breeder. |

I have sent snakes down to Cornwall and as far up as Scotland, all no problems at all.

I don't think you'll have a problem finding a snake down there.... You might struggle to get a morph for £200 though tbh.
Don't forget if you hunt around you can pick up some cracking normals.
If you search back a week or so there was a great thread where people were showing some really reduced pattern normals. They were excellent. In fact I'm sure someone will post you a pic up to show you. Good luck with your search  _________________ My website isn't quite there yet, as I got bored half way through writing it.

Thanks for your reply guys.
Yes I didn't really expect to find anything morph wise for my cash, my pastel dream is one for the future me thinks. I do love normals. They vary hugely and I'd be very happy with one of my own.
The problems I have with finding anything in Cornwall, is we are a bit behind everyone else, with everything! Tracking down breeders or even just general hobbyists is a long process and usually only achieved because I get chatting to someone on a forum, who knows someone's sisters ex husbands step brother... hehe.
Thanks for the replies so far, not yet found anything in my price range, but have a few new websites to oggle over  |

Maddie,
I suggest putting the £200 somewhere safe and saving another £200.
With pastels you REALLY get what you pay for. I have a VERY nice pastel
Well worth waiting for the right snake!!

Maddie I got the pastel (Graziani line) in my avatar for £300 with the complete setup, delivered. So just search around, if you wait something special will come your way soon enough, even if it takes abit of looking.
If it werent for me buying a double viv and female royal I would never have Roofus the pastel! _________________ x.Jessie.x
