Fire and vanilla comparison pics

[Vitto]

With fires and vanillas looking similar, especially as they get older. I figured I'd throw some shots of comparison to help distinguish the two.

Can you tell which is the fire and which is the vanilla?

Example #1


Example #2


Example #3

1. Van - Fire
2. Fire - Van
3. Fire - Van

That is my guess from the brightness of the yellows.

I think the lighter one is the vanilla. If not, I'd better learn, because I'm getting both this summer! Very nice snakes!

This is exactly what I'm talking about. These two morphs carry so many of the same qualities that it can be difficult to tell which is which. With so many breeders looking to breed these two morphs to get vanilla creams, it's important to know the difference. Especially when you have normals in the mix.

I will announce which is the fire and which is the vanilla this evening to give more ppl a chance to give there opinion.

There is a reason they look so similiar. They are on the same allele. Vanilla Creams cannot reproduce themselves. The Vanilla Cream acts like a super. Just throwing some info in there for people that might not have heard yet. There was some speculation but it's been confirmed by several people now.
