    Desert spider x axanthic/albino..opinions please

    Ok Considering breeding my Desert spider into both axanthic & albino females..would appreciate opinions ..Thanks

    Question 1- What do you think the Desert gene would do to the axanthic..would I be better holding off & breeding a Desert pastel spider or would the Desert spider clean up & alter the axanthic spider.

    Question 2= what changes do you think the Desert would make to an albino spider?

    Desert axanthic will prob look a lot like a pastel axanthic as that is what colors the desert brings to most morphs.

    Desert albino spider prob a waste of time, but as far as breeding go with a desert spiders het albino to hit the combo.

    I would go with the axanthic, I think the desert would act as a clean up morph for the axanthic and make a pretty cool clean looking snake

    I wouldn't see desert doing much for albino

    its all just speculation tho, don't know til you try

    To be honest.. I'd think that axanthics and albinos wouldn't use the desert to its maximum potential.

    I'd take an enchi/desert over an axanthic/desert or albino/desert any day, even though it takes fewer generations to produce.

    THANK YOU! i hate to hear someone say that trying to produce something that hasnt been made yet a waste of time. i'll bet a desert axanthic will look allot better than a pastel axanthic. the pattern will be altered and the desert seems to not just clean up color but also the pattern. go for both! no one knows what a desert spider albino will look like but i'll bet it will look better (at least different) than a albino spider. how could it not?!?

    Do it, besides all morphs and morph combos are usefull! You also cant go wrong with any of those three; Desert, Axanthic or Albino.

    Thank you, I think the desert gene would make a huge difference to the albino spider, adding the Desert gene transforms the spider, both in markings & colouration..what will it do to the albino spider
    It would def be worth trying with both the albino & axanthic..the worst scenario I will add to the gene pool in the collection..Cant be bad..
