I paid $50 for Barry from a breeder, but she was a personal friend of mine, and she also knew that he was going to live his life as a house bun, neutered and unbred. She usually charges $75 for an elop buck. It's going to cost about $120 to have him neutered. He's sending me to the poorhouse the way he eats those Oxbow pellets though! Because he's just 4 months old, he gets all of those he wants, and he wants about a cup and a half of those a day not to mention his timothy hay and 2 salads. Once he's neutered I'm going to start training with a therapy bun program, and I hope to find him a spayed lady friend at the local rescue.
