For Sale . . . or Not.

[Drizzt80]

After several of the discussions about the economy and the amount of snakes people are planning to produce, etc, and so forth, I've done some soul searching and decided to post the following animals for sale. If they go they go, if they don't, they'll continue on their project track around here.

Some of these have been brumated and will be available after breeding and egg laying. Some haven't been brumated and I'll stop breeding attempts once they're paid in full. Once they breed they will be available after egg laying. Some are keepers from '08 with the intention of future projects. Notes on each are posted below. I will NOT sell females alone from the pairs.

Regardless, nothing will be available for shipping until it warms up a tad in March. Shipping is NOT included in the prices listed. If you're more comfortable, non-refundable (but transferable) dowpayments (10%) can be made until shipping is possible. I will NOT hold anything indefinitely without a down- or full- payment.

Please PM or Email your interest.

Nice snakes Brent! You have some of the best animals around! wish I had the money!!! Oh, isn't this a bit redundant ? Caramel and Butter het Caramel

[Drizzt80]

Nice snakes Brent! You have some of the best animals around!Thanks man. I appreciate the compliment more than you'd know!

wish I had the money!!!Me too! ;)

Oh, isn't this a bit redundant ?Doh!! Thanks for catching that . . . Should read Caramel het Amel. I don't even know how/why I made that error! Must've been a brain fart. Argh.

Doh!! Thanks for catching that . . . Should read Caramel het Amel. I don't even know how/why I made that error! Must've been a brain fart. Argh.

I thought that meant the male was caramel het amel and the female was butter...

That's what they look like anyway.

[StrangeCargo]

I purchased an animal (lava corn) from Brent (Drizzt80) a few years back and I gotta say- it was one fo the smoothest transactions I've had. Great communication, superior packaging and wonderful animals. A++++ guy.

Good luck on the sale- great looking stuff- wish I had room!

Brent, this is the butter picture that I have been looking for for almost a month now....that changed my mind about butters, and led me to purchasing one. I kept asking everybody, even you, where that beautiful butter was....and here it is. Now that I have made that odd/awkward/wonderful step into looking at morphs differently (with your help) I need to look at your for-sales again. Thanks for the 2-16-09 update to bring the thread back up.

Absofriggafuggalutely. She was on 1-27, and she is now. I tell you what else, the amel motley is absolutely edible too. It looks so much like a sunglow motley....what is the difference?

[Drizzt80]

It looks so much like a sunglow motley....what is the difference?Nothing. Sunglow is a moniker typically given to Amel corns with no white. Amel Motleys typically have no white, while regular old Amels usually do have white.

I just personally choose not to use the Sunglow name in conjunction with a Motley as it's "normal" for them to not have white.

I hope that makes sense.

[Floof]

My god, I'm DEEPLY in love with that caramel/butter pair! Money's tight, though, and my parents won't fold--I guess I'll have to settle for a pair of their babies... I just hope the babies turn out as beautiful as their parents! =)
The funny part is, I didn't even LIKE the caramel morph (and its offshoots, of course) before I saw your ad and this pair... Funny how that works. It's kind of like how I didn't even like reptiles until a lizard found its way into the bathroom... Lol.

[Drizzt80]

The Lavender het Hypo poss het Anery will NOT be shipped until after egg laying and minimum 2 full meals for the female. They hooked up today! Wooohooo! You snooze you lose! (or you'll at least have to wait a while) ;)

D80

[Em Wright]

I wish I could take that pair, too. Looking forward to grabbing up at least one baby from them this season, though! :cool:

Anyone purchasing from Drizzt, will NOT be disappointed in anything they get. His snakes are all top notch.

[Drizzt80]

His snakes are all top notch.Almost all. I have one that's missing a leg.

D80

[ratsncorns]

I got the most beautiful ghost from Brent.... you can't go wrong with his snakes!

[Drizzt80]

Absofriggafuggalutely. She was on 1-27, and she is now. You know what's even better?! She's hazy today!! That means fresh new lickable looking skin just around the corner along with some raging pheromones!! :eek:

lol!

ooooooookaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy
Brent, Maybe you and Erik shouldn't be sharing your meds???
lol!
Kyle, I'm almost beginning to think he hasn't stopped at being a factor in me buying an 08 butter motley, he's trying to get me hooked on the original butter that actually changed my mind about yellow snakes.
Oh, and she looks very lemony-vanillaey to me. Still.

Didn't you see the 60 Minutes thing about the guy who saw numbers and letters as colors in his mind? When I see cool morphs I taste phantom flavors. Yeah....that's the ticket.

[Drizzt80]

ooooooookaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy
Brent, Maybe you and Erik shouldn't be sharing your meds???
lol!Trust me. (Yeah, right!!) I haven't licked a single one of my snakes or other animals. I'm just indulging Eric's weirdness. I can appreciate it and condone it. :D

D80

[danielle]

Eric licks snakes ummmm yummy!

[Em Wright]

I still want that Caramel and Butter, Brent.... I want them all. Why do you torture me so?? :p

[Lennycorn]

You might have better SUCCESS selling these on BOI. :D

[vetusvates]

Eric licks snakes ummmm yummy!
Yep. I just lurves the vividly colored morphs, in all their fruit and berry and poppy flavors. That's my schtick, and I'm schticking to it. :D ;)

[starsevol]

I absolutely adore your butter. I wish I could nab her individually. :(

You know...I really like that caramel male, although I wish he was motley. I need a mate for my 2005 caramel motley het amel female.....but I won't have money til May. Owning a bike shop this time of year is no stinking fun at all! If they are still available by then, perhaps something can be worked out!

[medusacoils]

Caution! Caution everyone!

Don't buy Brents snakes. I am serious!

Don't buy them because when you do, you will be so impressed with the quality, you will want to buy more. So you will send all your money to Brent. Then you won't have any and Brent will have it all! :dgrin:

(Compliments of Jay and PJ . . . maybe check with them if they have something you could use this year!)

Hey Brent, you think you'll have any Bloodreds het Anery this year? ;)I do not have any combinations like that in the works this year. As much as I'd love to get an Anery Bloodred, nothing I've seen to date matches the quality I've seen, or have, in a Pewter. I like dark and "smooth". :shrugs:

D80

[Em Wright]

Dark and smooth is certainly nice. :D

[Drizzt80]

Dark and smooth is certainly nice.Yeah, there's not a single Anery Bloodred that I've ever seen that even comes close to 1/2 as nice as this:

I really like that snake, Brent. And I absolutely cannot tell you why.He doesn't really elicit the "licking" temptation does he?!

The Blue Bowl just makes this picture pop!;):D
Incredible looking snake Brent as always.I can't take breeding credit on this one. He's from Don who sent me exactly what I requested, a dark Pewter, as a hatchling.

[animalhouse]

I keep thinking about that Dang Bloodred! ugh! I Wish I could get hubby to say yes!lol

[Em Wright]

I find sucking up works extremely well... Cook a nice dinner, rub his feet, watch his favorite TV show with him, that kind of thing... Then ever so gently and sweetly broach the subject. ;) Usually works for me! :D Good luck, you won't be disappointed if you get any of Brent's snakes. Not in the least. :cool:

[animalhouse]

LOL wish those worked! :) I can't cook and HATE feet! :) But we been watching... Star trek..? Lol I hate that show ugh Yea, I dont think he'd have a issue other then we dont have 180 for one plus a tank right now :(

[Em Wright]

Star Trek is awesome.... ;)

You wouldn't necessary need a tank, tubs work extremely well and are fairly cheap (check at Walmart). I recommend the ones that latch, the lids are more sturdy. If you have a "human" heating pad that will work just as well as ones marked for reptiles. You can use TP rolls and all kinds of house hold things as hides and water dishes, too. When I first got into this hobby I hadn't quite caught on to improvising, but it's a great thing to keep in mind. I've noticed a lot lately that things specifically for Reptiles always seems to be marked up way high, so if you can think of something to cut costs, that works just as well, go for it. :)

And good luck! If you can't get anything from Brent now, keep a watch out and pick something up from him later. :D

[animalhouse]

Wow, I never would have thought the normal person Heating pad LMAO

And good Sugestions! I have my snakes in 10gal tanks now.. my leos in Tanks.. so, we shall see. I am trying to move one of my leos to the big tank with the other two.. and if that goes well.. I will have a 20l open.. But the lid isn't the most secure.. :-/ It used to have one of the slidding locking lids.. But I gues it broke *I Bought it used* And I have just one of the Tops that go on top.. and there is a nice gap in between the lid and such.. So yea Not sure how to work it yet.. I am seeing what Kind of funds we have.
