Yeah, some pastel lines are better than others, but within those pastel lines I don't think anyone can say they produce the best Graziani pastels for example.I'd agree that keeping the best looking snakes gives you the best chance to produce your best results.

Do I think now's a good time to get into morph royals? Yes without doubt it's a far far better time than when I did, my money would of gone way further now but I'm sure I would still of ended up spending a similar amount but obviously would of saved myself 4 years + of breeding my own double morphs and instead I could of had the fun of starting my first breedings aiming for treble gene morphs |
That's a good way to think about it Scott.

Hello Jamie
I'd agree that producing a snake for your own the first time is great indeed, producing any snakes is really good, would first to produce a morph be better ? maybe not the first, first in the UK ? would that be more exciting ? how would that feel ? what would it feel like to breed two normals together and produce a totally new morph ? it could happen, it happens sometimes in our hopes and dreams.
Think your right about the royals, they are a pleasure, I think I'll always have them.
