Well, here are some things to think about:
Can you afford it?

Are you planning to breed, and, if so, do you have housing for all the babies and a way to sell them or give them away?

Do you know whether these are line-bred snows or Mack snows, and what that means in terms of breeding?

Once you find that out, you may want to look at some other breeders to see how the price compares to buying similar ones individually, or getting a smaller number of similar geckos for less money.

How much experience do you have with geckos and breeding? If your experience is limited you may want to progress a little more slowly.

Now, if all you were asking is "are these 5 geckos worth $625?" then I apologize for all the questions and would say that it's probably a pretty good price.

Are you expecting any life changes any time in the next few years (e.g. going to college, marriage, having kids, making a career change)? I ask because anything that you know will mean you may have to sell off the whole bunch within a year or two probably means it's not worth it to invest in a large number of breeders

 

[jmlslayer]

yeah i ment are the 5 geckos worth 600$ ?

If your going to invest that money in a group, I take that you plan on breeding Snows. Thats a nice bundle and it includes a Male. I Personally would rather pick and choise induvidule Mack Snows. Depends where you look if you would find a male or not. I see awesome Females Mack Snows between $45-$65 apiece. I guess I am saying is window shop alot before you buy.

I'm not so sure it's a good deal. Have you kept or bred leopard geckos already? If so, then it might be a good package. If not, then I suggest only going with one or two geckos (housed individually) for ahwile before investing that amount of money.

 

[jmlslayer]

wo where did you see ms females for 45-65 $?

 

[Ccrashca069]

I am not going to name web sites because all the breeders here have awesome geckos but click on the sponser web links on top.

 

[jmlslayer]

ill look at the sponsors but will you pm me a web site

 

[paulnj]

Honestly, you'd be better served making your own breeding group of diverse animals that YOU choose to pair together.

 

[Ccrashca069]

I agree Paul.

 

[jmlslayer]

yeah you got a point paul. right now all i got is shtct,shtctb and tremper albino's. i want to breed snows and enigma's but enigma's cost to much and so do single snows. i dont think i can get anything out of a snow x tremper or anything else

 

[Valley Reptiles]

They are very nice looking snows but they are a little pricey. If you look around you can find super snows close to that price.

 

[Bodon]

i agree with choosing the geckos yourself, there are a TON of great breeders on this site with great prices. i think the price for that bundle is good but like everyone else said unless you are planning to breed them, then its not a good idea to get it.

 

[jmlslayer]

yeah im not going to do that insted imgetting a SS 100% het. tremper male from paulj

 

[paulnj]

Wow, that guy has great geckos:main_laugh:

 

[jmlslayer]

yeah he does i really like his enigma's

 

[Nigel4less]

I completely agree with everybody getting geckos from different sources keeps your bloodline nice and diverse. It will payoff in the long run.

Although it would be cool to have a group from tug, i prefer to choose mine individually.
