Hi

I understand that there are a few combinations that can be bred to produce these. Do the ratio's of offspring produced vary depending upon the combo used? What's the most common combo being used?

thanks

Stuart

I dont know about the hatchling ratios... I would think that is pretty random no matter what combo you use....

I'm lead to believe that the lesser x mojo produces the nicest BEL. Cool

unless you use a visual bel as one half of your pairing all the pairing's will have the same odds at producing a bel and that's 1 in 4 Wink ive heard that lesser x mojo produce a wicked bel and ive seen a pic of a russo x lesser and that was really snow white.lesser x lesser bels are also stunningly white Wink

Thanks guys. So is anyone producing BEL's in the UK yet? I'm not hugely into royal morphs but I would like to produce some of these.

Yeah I prefer the blue eyed version. Not sure I'd pay for a visual though (about £7K aren't they?). Much more fun to produce your own anyway! Laughing

These are 2 of mine from last year. These were both lesser to lesser and completely white. Those with Mojave tend to have some colouration to their heads. As stated lesser platinum, mojave, Russo etc all produce BELS in a 1 in 4 ratio when mated together or 1 in 2 if mated directly to a BEL animal.
What's prettiest....a Blue EL, A Black EL or the Ivory??
