there is a five year old blue female on kingsnake right now going for $400 shipped. She isn't really a high whitre but she is a pretty looking girl... although small looking in pictures. I would buy her but i just moved and can't afford to make another setup, plus Bosco is still too young to breed.
oh ya the ad was posted on the 10th along with a red male ad.

Dave,
Ever consider a breeding loan?
I bought ours from CraigsList for $200 including a 125G tank (I'm working on building a 7ft x 3ft enclosure). She's not as white as yours but whiter than most I've seen. She's approx. 2.5 years old and should be ready to breed in the spring.
There's a vendor at the White Plains NY show that has interest in breeding with ours. She thinks she has a male (3 years old). I couldn't tell for sure from the pictures she sent.
We've never bred anything but roaches. It would be a crap shoot to see what happens.
Most people say Tegu's need to hibernate to be able to successfully breed, but I've read Blues don't hibernate.
I guess we'll see if she hibernates. _________________ 1.1.16 Blue Tegus, 1.0 Red Tegu, 0.1 B&W Arg. Tegu

they just re-listed it. She's not a hi-white but she is a 5 year old blue.
Hmmmm.... I think if I'm going to spend that kind of money, it should be in better shape than that and higher-white. A lot of it's tail was missing... it grew back, but still...
