    Question Ok, I gotta ask...

    This is probably an easy question but when I got my male cinny today the breeder made it a point to tell me and show me the genetic black back. He also said he has a fader gene?? WTF is a fader gene??...lol.. And is it good to have?

    If it was purchased at the avg cinni price then it doesnt have the fader gene if so it would be a cinnamon fader and would be much more than the average price for a cinnamon

    Well what happend was I guess there was 2 "partners" involved with the vendor I got him from, the one guy I paid just had him marked as a cinny, but once I paid for him I guess the "smarter" guy, atleast he sounded alot more versed in bps as to the guy I paid was from what I gathered to be the corn,bull snake guy...lol.. Anyway I paid the not so smart one, had my guy in hand, and then the smart guy came over looked at the prices and started crossing them out and putting higher prices on a few. He told me I was lucky cuz I pretty much was givin a goldmine...lol...thats when the smart guy told me him and his brother, a gorgous pewter had fader gene. I was just excited to really care at the time but now I wanna know... Fyi the pewters price went from $200 up to $650 if it matters....

    That sounds really suspicious lol... since when did pewters only cost $200?
    I would've bought all of them if their prices were that low LOL.

    Oh trust me, if I had my credit card or more cash i'da had my intire wish list filled...lol.. But thats what i'm sayin is I think guy one had no real idea what he had cuz guy 2 was the bp breeder, guy 1 knew about the corns and other herps on the table...i'm hoping I got lucky, either way a cinny for what I paid I feel is a steal, so i'm good...lol..
