adult female rhino iguana for baby aldabra

[argus333]

i have a adult female rhino iguana that is as tame as they come! has done kid shows at schools has never ever bitten in her whole life she is six yrs old. has laid infertile eggs last 2 yrs in row. will trade for small baby aldabra tortoise. tame as they come!

Dude...these Iguana's sell for under 400 bucks...Aldabra's go for over 2k...

Agreed. She looks like a lovely iguana but they are extremely common - one of the shelters I volunteer at has very large, very tame iguanas with adoption fees around $45. They are awesome animals. She is definitely trade worthy, but not for an Aldabra. Thats kinda like asking to trade a 85' Honda civic for a Lamborghini.

That's because they import so many of them, and don't really have the room for them to stay too long. They also arent really kept the best. they usually start pyramiding before you get them. Not the worst, but not the best either. Most of the time, if you can find a good breeder of them, like our own ALDABRAMAN, they are 2000 and up. No, you don't have a fair trade that anyone would consider, unless they had a sick tort or one they just don't want anymore and even then they ask way too much. Go for a larger sulcata or a leopard. Good luck anyway.

Argus,
I think you need to be aware of the amount of scams in this world. Having done a lot of business in the "animal world" I can tell you 70% of what you find on the internet is a scam. Those outlandishly cheap aldabras you came up with were either diseased or it was a scam...From any reputable breeder that someone would actually buy from, they run 1800 and up. Rhino iguanas usually sell for around $600(at the high end of the scale, for females) individually; pairs are a different story, as in any species.
Your asking for an unfair trade; this is what folks here are kindly trying to inform you of.
But this is a classifieds section, so I think we only need to be posting if we have an offer to make him.

You can find inflated prices for all different type of Reptiles, but every Adult Rhino I've ever acquired was $500 or under. Of course I have a few people a week trying to sell me their $1000 adults that they've been trying to sell for the past 8 months......It just comes with the territory......

There is no such thing as an "old" or "retired" Female Rhino though......They will produce viable clutches untill the day they die.......Some of the Adults that were collected in the 80's are still producing today......


On another note, if you are interested in other species I would be willing to see if we could work something out......

 

[argus333]

is it a long shot? ya but if someone wanted to trade why would it matter to any of u? if someone wanted to trade a bentley for a ford focus whats the big deal? sold her today $1200 on craigs list no less.

 

[Laura]

never hurts to ask. .. congrats on selling her...

 

[Clementine]

Awesome - sell a few more and you've got that Aldabra in the bag..er..mail

 

[argus333]
