I found somebody locally who is trying to get rid of their snakes. They are asking me to make an offer. I don't know much about prices of snakes since I am more of a tarantula guy. I do have a few king snakes, corns, boas, and Hognose snakes but I bought them at a show. How much do you think a fair price would be for the following: (priced individually.)

Snow corn snake
Blood red corn
Desert king
High white desert king.

All of them are a foot or less.

I had a small corn snake around 17" got for £50 at pets at home in the past (got to around a meter before selling) back in 2006, that said i still see constrictors like corn snakes at that price plus buying enclosures/mice etc.

Hi sorry had to Edit, i just know small corn snakes are around £50 over here, not sure about the others.

At a reptile sale, average prices for the Corns and the Splendida King would range from $25.00-35.00, depending on the individual animal. The High-White CalKing would probably sell for around $65.00-100.00, again, depending on factors like markings, feeding habits, etc. Bloodred Corns can be picky feeders when young, sometimes difficult to get really started, and one that size could either be a really young animal or one of those picky feeders that's stunted, so that's something you really want to know.
