Clowns are one of my favs but if you were to ask a casual herper they typically don't see a whole lot of difference between those and normals to be honest.
I worked my first reptile show in a couple years and we had a couple clowns at our table and the only people that really even gave them a second look were people with experience in the hobby. The ooohhhs and aawwwwsss with also go to the pieds, which happend at our table and you can get them for half the price as a clown.
Anyway, I don't know where that really was going....just an observation that I thought I would share.
I love your clowns!!!! Very cool!
