24 Snakes You Can't Afford to Buy!

[@chesterswingjr9796]

Chris: 24 ball pythons you probably can’t afford. Me: Most of Ozzy Boid’s table!!!

[@camoconstrictors6374]

My snake I just bought wasn't that expensive. But to me, it was a huge investment the Pinstripe puzzle. And Chris, you would definitely like it. I'm going to do a spotlight on him tomorrow night and out of all of them. I definitely would choose the monsoon. That is my top dream single Gene morph

[@kinte1870]

Yeah well Bobby is worth 10 gazillion dollars so take that to the bank

[@morrisnakes]

Good video! Desert Ghost is definitely on my buy list this year. It's incredible how powerful it is.

[@MrNatan1000]

Dope video, dude!!! Keep up the good work!

[@irThumper]

18:23 How much did the Pastel Asphalt Gravel go for? You didn't say :O

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

You can look it up on Morphmarket, I'm sure there's only one snake with those genes.

[@margaritasalt]

really interesting and informative as always, chris! thanks :)

[@Lovelockreptiles]

What rack and tub size do you use for your breeder females? Thanks Chris! Love your videos I watch all of them, hope to meet you someday at an expo in Colorado.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I use ARS 70 series tubs for most of my adults.

[@michaelcox4118]

Your videos are awesome dude, very informative

Most expensive ball python i have held was 25k produced by Kevin

Is it possible to create a patternless pure yellow blue eyed snake

[@debbiekaufenberg1511]

Omg those are the most beautiful morphs I have ever seen thanks for sharing that with us I don't know which one I liked the best I loved them all!!!

[@atomicpythonlab6215]

I picked up 50 new babies over the summer, so they're all under the "can't afford section" for a while... 🤣🐍😂🐍🤪🐍🤪🐍🐍🐍🤪🐍🐍🐍🐍

[@jetman1963]

i love the monsoon!

This was.definitely one of my favorite video you’ve done 🤙🤙🤙take care brother ✌️✌️

Great video. Panda pied, both axanthic clown, and urban camo are my favorite also what’s your name on morph market so I call keep up with what you have for sell.

Have a feeding question you may have address before . My garters seem to be looking for food three days after i feed them so i have been increasing the ammount of food giving three pinkys now . Same with my ball python she seems to want food quicker than the five days ive been feeding . Last time i gave her two rat pups . I got my last three snakes in and put her in the finished rack with them and didnt expect her to eat because i just moved her . I tried and just got the rat below the cover and she came ripping out and hammered it . Startlingi me i didnt even see her. Should i feed more or should i shorten from five to four days between feeding or both . Should you give as much as they seem to want? i doent remember having this in the passed with my king snakes they seemed to eat every 7-10 days .

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I would feed according to body condition. You can feed every day or two for a short time until they look a bit plump, then I'd cut back. For my really fat snakes I'll feed once a month LOL

[@680ecks]

Thank you for another great video!

How do you make that clown banana pied???

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

You'd have to cross a banana het pied het clown with a het pied het clown.

[@ijustdontcareanymore1022]

I hope Taylor Nicole Dean hasn't killed that chimera ball python yet. I mean I hope she never does, though she seems to hoard and collect animals and with as many animals that she has/had, she has also neglected and killed some. She also had her heroin addiction which from my experience I know sometimes you could just let everything fall apart in your life, so I hope she's continuing to stay clean and I hope nothing has happened to that beautiful ball.

[@AB-od7mk]

She still has him. I seen him on her insta. He is beautiful!

[@atomicpythonlab6215]

That Acid Leopard should be called.. Def Leppard 🤘😶

[@superjam18]

I don’t know about this hobby but based on some videos and pictures I like the Axanthic colors and pattern similar to to the Asphalt looking one

[@deadmanomegagaming4061]

can you do a video on making your own unique morph combo's

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Good idea! I'll add that one to the list.

[@staceyroberts3468]

I agree with ya on that panda pied.

[@jhannah6720]

You should have t shirts that say “PRETTY AMAZING” on them, throw me some royalties when the merch money comes rolling in

[@Roylevis]

Amazon Basin Tree boas can sell for upwards 30k

[@theshuz]

Taylor Nicole Dean bought that Chimera and has it on her KZbin channel.

[@lonewolfq50s71]

Any health issues associated with all the different morphs?

I am thinking to get into ball pythons, what genes would you recommend to get first?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I like Bamboo!

[@chrisolavarrieta]

Nice video

[@Dovietail]

Could you do a video on genes that are recessive but create a visual difference as hets? That would be so useful!

[@redsound9333]

Wow 😮 nice snakes 🐍

[@Kissheep]

yes of corse i can afford to buy them ALL, if I sell my organs..

[@sinandcyanide7505]

If you pick the right country to sell them in, you could do pretty well with just selling one kidney, half your liver and a lung.

[@douglasgriffiths3534]

Keep your organs. You don't know if one of your kidneys may go on you, and you'll need the other one. You could sell part of your liver. It can regenerate. (Jan Griffiths).

[@eliduran902]

You say that as if I can even afford a $500 snake 😆

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I agree, even $500 is a lot!

[@mazerunner7640]

There is a ball python for 25k rightnow

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

That would really break the bank!

[@clownworld4655]

Now there’s one for 32k. It’s apparently a chimera ball python. 2 different colored eyes with what looks like multiple patterns on a single snake

[@karyannfontaine8757]

If I did not have to pay property tax I could buy one of these beautiful snakes.

[@paytonstrong9010]

Me watching this video knowing it could have been literally any snake and I couldn't afford it 🙃

[@stephanb5945]

Taylor Nicole Dean : on youtube $10,000 SNAKE vs $200 SNAKE (My Two New Pets) Chimera ball python

[@darkstormoutdoors5831]

If the chimera was male on one side and female on the other, could it breed itself? (first thing that came to my mind.)

[@douglasgriffiths3534]

No. It dosen't work like that. Either one gender would function, but more than likely neither one would. The snake's hormones would be in a constant state of confusion, so probably neither would, and the animal would just be something to marvel at. (Jan Griffiths).

[@nickyperezz]

Anything from n.e.r.d. is top nocth kevin is the man

[@punkrawkahballpythons]

I got a lead on a breeding pair of banana het monsoon. Shes produced 1 monsoon so far. $4500 for the pair. Get at me if your interested lol.

Man, my ball was mean as HELL!

[@music4gamers947]

Why the fk is panda pied so expensive? XD its literally easy to make

[@katharinaschmalen7065]

Wow I got a good deal. I got a ivory paradox ball python male. He's a stunner and only was 150€ I think I got really lucky

[@douglasgriffiths3534]

Unfortunately, paradox isn't genetic. It crops up from time to time. I have a champagne pastel who's paradox and has a ringer. One of her male babies has a small dark spot, and a small ringer. The dad is a calico. Out of all 27 babies she's had, he is the only one that turned out like that. They're stunning though. (Jan Griffiths).

[@buffalophil3630]

@@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures hey so out of curiosity does shipping depend on the snakes? Or state I'm from California

[@morrisnakes]

@@buffalophil3630 The actually shipping costs go by 3 things: how far, weight, size of the box. Shipping from CA to CA would be almost half the price of CO to CA. Unless you are buying a lot of snakes or a really heavy snake, weight and box size don't change the price drastically, just a few bucks. Hope that helps! I want a bamboo from @Chris Hardwick too! Such a cool morph.

[@nickyperezz]

Nerd just sold a sweet paradox i really wanted for like 2k

[@douglasgriffiths3534]

The trouble with paradox is that it's not genetic. I have a paradox champ pastel female with a ringer. She's been bred with a male (not a champ, also with ringer), back in 2018, and not one of those babies had ringers or paradox. The year before, she was bred to a calico male, and I did get one baby (male) with a small ringer, and a small spot of dark color on his head. I wish it was genetic like it is in Kenyan sand boas. (Jan Griffiths).

[@matthewspurdle9130]

Crazy no ball python is worth that much in my eyes,all the same snake but with a different paint job lol.greed and money is messing the market up,all will be inbred too

[@morrisnakes]

We wouldn't have much of a ball python market if there weren't much money involved. Look at how the corn snake market and boa constrictor market have gone because the prices dropped too much. Breeding is hard work and a big investment to do it right. Those big $$ ones will come down quickly, it's just that way because they are new morphs. Protip: inbreeding is 100% okay as long as there isn't negative recessive genes! That's the only reason it becomes a problem for something captive. In the wild inbreeding is bad if it's too much because the less variation there is between animals, the more chance that ALL of them will get wiped out if the environment changes in some way; if a handful have a gene that helps them in some way with the change, they will survive.

[@jimmieparker8093]

Only an idiot would pay 5 grand let alone 30 for a damn snake that sit on a cage...lol lol...talk about over compensating for somthing...lol..my normal ball looks way more natural and gorgeous than these and i only paid 100 bucks....lol

[@joshuahull9982]

Anybody who would spend that kinda money on a snake has more money than sense. A fancy morph doesn't behave any different and doesn't live any longer and doesn't shit gold, diamonds or platinum. In fact its lifespan is probably shorter because they won't tell you that pretty much all morphs are inbred to some degree. All of these breeders sell snakes back and forth to each other so you know some inbreeding is definite. I wasted money on an albino ball python only for it to develop cancer and die young. It was beautiful but what good is beauty without health and longevity. I would rather have a normal ball python as long as its healthy. My uncle has a normal ball python he bought as a baby in 1980. She just reached her 40th birthday and still eats live rats. You won't see ANY morphs live that long. I don't care what this guy says. Looks are the ONLY thing these morphs have. Health and longevity, not so much but to each their own. You can't tell gullible people what to spend their money on. I guess I'm different because I'm only interested in healthy snakes. I've had a 27 year old corn snake and an eastern garter snake live to 14.
