$200 would be a great price for a healthy F7 pet. Emphasis on healthy.

My f5 SBT Diablo was $950.
He is a wonderful, loving kitty. He is a certified therapy pet. I thought $950 was a good price for a SBT savannah male, arriving up to date with his vaccines, neutered, and with a health certificate.

The breeder accidentally ended up with a litter of F4a kittens around the time we bought Diablo. She knew we were considering Adopting another cat to be Diablo's buddy, so offered us one as a companion for him (we bought him in October 2011 and he came home in November-we did not have any kitty's yet) for the cost of vaccines and spay.

We chose to just bring home Diablo at the time, but I would expect a responsible breeder to do what our breeder did- send kittens even accidental ones home up to date on shots, vet checked, and neutered. Anything else would raise a red flag for me.

I would consider asking your breeder to take the kittens in for a checkup and vaccines before they come home. That way, you have a better shot of starting with a healthy kitten. if you offer to pay for it, and the breeder still declines, then I would find another breeder.

I am late to the part but am glad to see you are going to neuter. I agree with everything that has been said as far as spraying (I have 2 stud males and it is a marking war!). Also, I think 200 is fair. I hope you enjoy your new babies.
 
The OP has asked one question that bothered me. What are these kittens worth? No questions about caring for them. No questions about the breed. Just "Hey, I found some mixed breed cats that look like Savannahs. How much can I get if I breed them? Sorry man. I just feel like your trolling for "asking price" for your "breeding program". I mean, who lets their kids leave the doors open with $2,000 cats running around? Back yard breeders. That's who.
