Help me pick a hold back EBV... pics!

RyanHomsey Aug 12, 2007 09:49 PM

I've already got 3 females picked out to hold back from this litter. I know... I know... 3 is probably enough... but I just love these little guys! It was a big litter of 30 too, so I can hold back lots and not feel too bad. At least I'm only holding back one male!

I go back and forth between these two on which I like more. Help me choose!

Option A. Female number 4

Option B. Female number 9

Options A and B together

So, which one should I keep?

I would go with the one that is LEAST like your other 3 holdbacks. Sometimes the best looking baby hypos don't turn into the best looking adults. Good to have some variety. If you still can't decide, it's simply a matter of two more cages rather than one. You can always put something on the extra females!!!

Ryan:

I like the tail on A much better that B. They are both unbelievably beautiful, but option A has the type of contrast that I'm looking for in a tail.

Thanks for sharing

A has a great tail and alot of color already showing. B doesn't have the tail but I have a feeling will look nicer as an adult. A is so bright already I have a feeling it will dinge up as an adult.

The general consensus seems to be for option A. I have had her marked since birth as one of my holdbacks... but option B has continued to grow on me. I think I will leave things as is and if B sells... then the choice is made for me. Thanks again everyone for your input.
