2004 PRICES:
DISCOUNTS: 20%
early-order discounts expired Jan 1. Lesser discounts may be offered thereafter.
TO ORDER: A 25% deposit
is required to place an order. Deposits are taken to assure orders are definite
and that new homes are immediately available for hatchlings (after they have shed
once and fed at least twice); if the balance is not paid within two weeks of
notification that eggs have begun hatching, deposits are forfeited. Once I have shipped I will guarantee the
babies for an additional 30 days.
When I feel I have taken orders for all my
likely production I begin a WAITLIST to keep people in order
should I produce more than I am comfortable predicting. There is no deposit or obligation
associated with waitlist positions.
SHIPPING: Unless and
until overnight couriers change their policies to allow the shipment of live
snakes properly marked and packed, IÕll ship only by air, usually Delta DASH,
which costs about $70. I pay
shipping for orders of $1,000 or more; and I charge $50 for shipping on smaller ordersÑI pick up the
rest of the cost.
OUR POLICIES: We ship
after your animals have shed once and fed at least twice. Shipping is coordinated carefully for
your convenience and the animals' well-being. I guarantee your satisfaction with them for 30 days after
arrival.

taking orders: I should have excellent examples of this type for those who
order now.
From snow project:
Snows are arguably the
most dramatic of all the Honduran morphs, and with the exception of hybinos,
are still the rarest. IÕll be
breeding from my original silver-and-pink male, and from a bubblegum pink,
white and yellow male. Females
include a three-color female and double-hets. Babies may also be produced for the first time from our
unique white and yellow snow female.
Snows, males $2250 ea.,
females 1800 ea. (males were 2500, females 1750 in 02, 2400 & 1800 ea. In 03, sold out
well in advance both years). I
