Must be some magical kingsnakes! At expos they go for around $30! And the most normal rosy boa is usually $100

This is a herp farm, not an expo or show. Snakes are usually cheaper at shows because they come directly from the breeders. Also you have to look at the region. Different states will have different prices. Some things are just more or less expensive in different states.

Oh, I get that some states have different prices. I was just surprised because of the prices I'm used to seeing. You said "Snakes are usually cheaper at shows because they come directly from the breeders." Are the people at the herp farm not the direct breeders of the animals you bought?

Have you ever seen the show swamp brothers? They breed some of their stuff but not everything. I don't really know the ins and outs of their business practices but they told me a lot of their corns come from local breeders.
