Desert Orange Ghost! These pictures are pre shed and a day out of the egg. Should be really gold and orange after a shed or two..

Stunning snake, but worst name every. I assume you are joking with this one, lol.

How about naming it for exactly what it is????

Nope! Not joking at all. This combos name is the goldenrod. Calling a cool new combo by all the base mutations used to produce it?! YAWN! BORING!! You see for me a large part of the fun in producing the first of a combo is getting to name it anything I like. Superfly, Killer Queenbee, Buttery Nipple, Casper Ugly Moo Moo Pants and many more new combos that I produced first all have funny names. The reason? I like FUN! And this hobby has a lack of that as your post shows. So when you produce something new call it whatever you like. Over here though at Marki Reptiles were not going to settle for anything less then FUN! So hang on to you Goldenrod and settle into the Moo Moo Pants since were just getting started!!!!!

I like it!

Does it make sorting out the whole morph-genetics thing a bit of a challenge? Yes. But it makes it a lot of fun too

Grats Josh!

I really hate to say this but I am really disappointed with some people's comments in regard to naming a first. It IS and SHOULD be fun for you! If people have lost the ability to see FUN in naming a morph what ever they want then I feel that they may have lost FUN in their own life.

I look forward to seeing a lot of FUN new combos and can't wait for my turn CHEERS!

It's better than naming it a Desert Ghost cause that's just crazy confusing.

I hope people call it desert hypo, just to clear confusion or really use the name
