Now let me start my telling you that I do not want this to become a heated battle or Pastels vs. Mojaves. Firstly, I would like to express my condolences for your fading pastels, seems like you picked the wrong line (I deal exclusively with the Graziani/Sutherland Line from Greg). I have a few pastels, and none of them have faded. Secondly, mojaves, as of yet, have not been proven co-dominant, as nobody has produced a super mojave. If I am mistaken, please direct me to a picture, or link. Also, in order to produce the 'super mojave' (if proven co-dominant, which, IMHO it will), you need TWO mojaves; MOST people cannot slap down $15000 US for two snakes. When you could get 1.5 pastels, for the same price, and most likely produce at least one super pastel, (as we already know they exist). Just to set things straight, I personally love the mojave, and I have the money, but would rather invest it in albinos, (I have 2) as they, to me, have more potential in new morphs. Lastly, I live in Canada, and up here, people will just not pay the kind of money you guys down in the States will for a morph, so, for the beginner breeder, who has not built up a clientele persay, it would probably be much easier to offload a few pastels than it would be to offload a mojave at 3 times that price. Finally, it all comes down to what you like. In my opinion, it's all about "curb appeal". Let me explain. If I were to have 20 different BP morphs sitting on a table, side by side, what morph would grab you attention, what would your eye be attracted to? In my opinion; the albino, the pastel/super pastel, and maybe the axanthic........I welcome a response to this message.......
