 Is this too much?

I asked my local pet shop if they could order in a rainbow boa and they said that it would be around $300 or something crazy like that. She knew someone with a 6ft one plus set up for sale for $500 which I think is a good deal considering you get the setup but I dont want to get one that is grown I want to start with a baby. Do you think $300 for a baby is crazy priced?

You can go to a local reptile show near you (each month there should be one) and find Brazilian Rainbow Boas (as babies) priced $135 - $175 on average.

High-Orange costs a little more. High-Reds even a little more than those.

Females are generally more than males too.

So a baby male that is normal...should be $135.

Then there are Hypo, Anery and Albino BRBs but with those you’re talking about thousands!

I hope this helps?!

Yes it’s too much. You should check out David Colling’s sight rainbowsrus. I payed about $150 for my baby.
