.....this time of year.

I mean as much as I loooove to look at all the new Designer Balls, each passing day comes envy, no, desire, no, need to have these incredible combos in my possession (eventually, hopefully).

And then I come to my senses and realize I can only have so many.
But which ones??
Ever tried to list your 20 favourite Morphs or Combos?
It seems a bit daunting just thinking about it, eh?

Let's be realistic, for anyone to have a 'complete collection' is an oxymoron in itself.

Well, not without a boatload of cash and a building to house the hundreds of various morphs and designer combos.

And just when you think you believe (foolishly) that you have a complete collection, the hatching season arrives.
And with it another 75 or 100 new Combos alone.
Nevermind what new morphs were imported. lol

It's a testament to our 'hobby' what has been done in crossing mutations these last few years.
Balls and countless other Herps.

Anyone dare wager a guess as to how many new Ball Combos have been hatched this year??
I mean just look at this one page in the forum ALONE.

Thanks to all who have posted, and continue to post photos of all of these 'Designer Balls'.
I blame you for my sickness. haha

Everday I get on this site! I cannot think of a day (Maybe yesterday) that something new has not been posted. It's amazing!
Congrats to all the breeders and their new morphs.
I am sure a couple of years from now, the craziness will show up!

Brian from BHB or Ralph Davis (just to name two) could sign over their entire collections to me tomorrow...and I'm sure I'd still want more.
Haha.

I scrolled down the webpage in a way that kept hidden your entire disclaimer.

I read the list and thought to myself, 'wow, look at that, he managed to make a Top 20 list'....

And I scroll down one more click of the mousewheel.......

DISCLAIMER....LOL

Likewise, my list would probably change with each passing day.
