View Poll Results: Should I get albinos or axanthics?

Opinions please!
I have the opportunity to acquire either 1.1 100% het albinos or 1.1 100% het axanthics for nearly the same price. I love both, but I'm leaning towards the axanthics. What does everyone think?

Totally up to you and depends on what YOU like. What morphs are appealing to you and what are your long term goals? I assume you're thinking about breeding in the future since you're looking at pairs of hets, but what morphs do you want to work with? Is there a specific snake that you know you'll never be able to afford but want to try to produce?

I personally love albinos, and they are always popular...a classic 
But go with what you want! Axanthics have some pretty cool combos and would rock if you get a good quality pair to make good babies! It's up to what morph YOU like and want to make!

Honestly, I'm dying for both, lol. I agree the albinos are always popular and classic, but the axanthics are just so stunning. *sigh* Decisions, decisions!

Re: Opinions please!
I voted Axanthic, but it really depends upon what you want more. If you are looking to breed, which if your getting a pair, I'm guessing that is your goal. There are a lot of Albinos out there, not so many Axanthics. What line of Axanthic is it your looking at ? Some are better than others. There is a market for both. Weigh your options.

Axanthics start out looking amazing, as they age the majority of them end up looking normal-ish. Don't get me wrong I have seen some stunning adults, rarely. Albinos always look great IMO.
As stated above get what you want as a base morphs and for combo potential. I don't think I would ever want a cinnamon just because of the single gene. I NEED one because of everything else they do in combos such as cinny albino, cinny ghost, super cinnies...the list goes on.
