i really like mojaves and am looking into to buyin some or het for mojaves. i was just wondering what the price range would be for the hets and the mojaves
thanks zane

There is no such thing as a Het for Mojave. Mojaves are hets for super mojave, and if crossed with the right stuff, they make blue eyed lucy's. Mojaves are co dominant, not recessive, thus making them the het for a super form. A good price for a well started male is about $1200, and female for $2000. These are prices reflective of a well established animal, eating, 400-500 grams, and not a hatchling.
Good luck with your search.

thanks for the help. if i would want 2 make super mojavs would i want 2 breed a male or femaleto a noraml or would it have to be to another morph

sorry about the spelling mistakes not reading before i post

You need 2 Mojaves in order to make the super form. If you cross a Mojave to a normal you will get half a clutch of normals and half Mojaves, ie
MOJAVE X NORMAL => MOJAVES 50% & NORMALS 50%
MOJAVE X MOJAVE => MOJAVES 50%, NORMALS 25%,& SUPER MOJAVE 25%

This means that out of 4 eggs, 2 will be Mojave, 1 super, and 1 normal. Genetic ratio is a theory so you might get 3 mojaves and 1 super, or 2 Mojaves and 2 normals, etc. So, the bigger the clutch, the better the chances. I hope this helps.

thanks it helps a lot, but i regret not paying attention in science when we were studing genetics lol
