Go for a male
If you just want one...get a male,
there tends to be a surplus of males with most (many) breeders and you have better chance of getting a prime pick sent to you if requesting a lone male.
also many breeders charge a surcharge for lone females and a male can be your best deal.
Some also have a minimum $ order.
Live arrival and satisfaction guarantees vary from non-existent to more than generous guarantees,I've seen legitimate offers of up to 7 month satisfaction assured return privileges, now thats a guarantee.
Remember the old addage:'"Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten" and is very true when applied to livestock.
The best doesn't cost that much more, especially with Corn Snakes, compared to other species.
(i.e. Bolivian,double banded.Scarlet macaws = $5000 a pair for the nice ones)
A Hundred bucks or so for the latest and the greatest morph's , 25 bucks for a baby Okeetee,what a deal, what a fun hobby IMHO :
If you think you may want to breed later on, possibly, it sure is handy to have some great stock sitting there staring up at you already
If you decide to order one online,
you can check if there reputable or not at
www.faunaclassifieds.com
and then click Reptiles and amphibians
and then find:
"The Original Board of Inquiry"
and search the persons name and / or there biz's name before you send off your money. Don't see em or not very reassuring reports, order elsewhere
Many Wolves in Sheeps clothing out there,always has been, always will be,
so Buyer Beware
