actually my mate did pay $3000 each, and there was a lot of demand for them when he bought them. i'll qualify this by acknowledging that his were adults not hatchlings. and judging by the look of hatchlings, you'd have to be careful when sexing them. |

| | | | Perthensis Well I am not in OZ so I cannot say about price or availability but I can provide a picture. They are simple to care for just like the rest of the Antaresia complex. I have not yet bred them but my inquiries with those who have, all say they are very easy but they babies can be hard to get started. They are a great little python to work with for sure.

In saying that I thought they were about $1500 each.
