Yellow Bellies have been coming in from the wild for years now. They used to sell for a few hundred bucks as really cool looking normals. A few breeders recognized them to be genetic and invested the time to prove them out to be much more. They have always been very abundant in the wild and many adults and CH babies are imported each year. On occasion an Ivory will pop up in Africa, at least 3 that I personally know of. Pastels are also very abundant in Africa, but I have never heard of a Super Pastel being imported or hatched on a farm.
In my opinion, saying a YB is proven to produce Ivories is like saying a pastel is proven to produce Supers. A yellow belly is a yellow belly, period. They all make Ivories and even better, they make other cool things like Super Stripes and Ebonies. In my opinion, they are the best value for your buck right now.
Others may disagree and would prefer spending the extra cash to be reassured with a proven line... the choice is yours.
