How young of a pair? if you want juviniles wait a little while and buy some from Ben Renick(when he has some babys for sale). But if you want some semi adults look on kingsnake
Contact Ben renick his website is www.BenRenick.com and you can contact him via website/e-mail

Ohh ok well I guess look for him on some forums and pm him or something if your really want some nice greens. The ones on kings snake are both cb and wc depending on whos selling them. Well right now its breeding season soo you will have to wait till every one has some clutches. Or buy from wholesale stores.

I would recommend a guy by the name of Zach Currie. His website is www.zachcurriereptiles.com and he has some amazing condas. I bought my young male green from him and couldn’t be happier. Best of luck!

If you’re looking to buy greens from Ben this summer then I’ll have to get a hold of him before you as soon as the clutch hatches!

Would LOVE to try and get a hypo green if he has any!

Yeah Mr. Renick has been great at dealing with all my emails over the last 5 months or so.

Currently my lady and I are discussing if we want to get a female yellow conda or a male green conda first. We do plan to have both eventually but room/money are forcing us to pick one first so we’re not sure.

She’s a bit of a purist and loves the normal greens but that Hypo Orange makes my head spin, so we’re split there.
As for yellows, we’ll if that Marble trait proves out you can bet your bottom dollar that I’d spill top dollar for one. The irony is that if it DOES prove out, its more likely males will be released than females, but I’m only interested in female yellows, but NOT for breeding purposes, simply for size difference instead.

Ah well, its like the NCAA Basketball Tourny...
Speculation is all well and good, but only time will show what the final results are!

Hey
Yea he is a great guy! I have been emailing him to for the last couple of months to lol.
Well I like his ’’morph’’ condas the marbel and others too soo I would likely say get one of thoes first (its up to you lol) . Well thoes arent going to be cheap pretty pricey but I would pay that much for a snake that cool! As for the hypo get on othes after. Just my thoughts yellows take up a little less space and are pretty cool. Well in my thoughts condas dont grow very fast so by the time you get the other the other one should be close or full grown.

If the Marble is genetic I would expect a hefty price. Same goes for axanthic. Hypo yellows are generall $800 or so from what I’ve seen both from Ben and Kingsnake.
He’s got a Marble X Axanthic "in the cooker" so to speak, but whether or not the coupling took I’m not sure he has released info on. This means its possible there might be some in late summer.

As far as greens, yes the hypos arent being bred at the moment, but like I said, my gf and I are still undecided as to what pattern we would want.

Growth rate isn’t much of an issue for us. We’re looking to work it out so that we get 1 Conda this summer, and 1 the following summer. Condas can put on significant size quickly too. Neonates can hit 6 feet within 12-18 months!

At this point the only question is purely aesthetics. The only reason I mention finances is that I’m not at the stage where I feel I can provide adequate attention and housing for two anacondas at the same time. However within another 18 months (2 summers) it should be entirely feasible.
