The problem with Vanillas is they look SO much like normals. They are obviously a proven morph, with a good looking Super, but I would not go breeding a male Vanilla to 4 normal females in hopes of producing a ton of Vanillas. They just are not that attractive as single morphs, and way to hard to tell from normals sometimes.

In their defence, my Pastel Vanilla female is 2 years old and still looks great. Very bright, way, way nicer than my similar aged Pastel YB male. I also really like the Vanilla Fire, so much so, that I have decided to breed my Sulfur Mojave male to my Pastel Vanilla female.

To sum up my review of the Vanilla morph, lousy stand alone Ball morph, but nice cross animal with an above average Super...."and it ain't another white snake!"
