    Suggestions on a Morph Decision?

    Good morning, everyone! Hope your day is going well.

    Here's a fun little topic that I'm hoping to get some feedback on. And your opinions about your favorites!

    You see, recently I picked up a male Pied hatchling (who has officially gone onto F/T at our place. Yay!) It was one of my dream animals. However, it seems to have picked my boyfriend as it's favorite person, haha. And my boyfriend is just smitten with him. So, 'my' snake has now become 'his' snake, which is perfectly fine with me. My boyfriend was almost anti-reptile for a while, so I'll encourage this for sure!

    As such, I'm thinking of adding an additional member to the household. I tend to do a lot of school presentations and whatnot, so it'd also be nice to have an extra snake on hand.

    The problem is, I'm completely overwhelmed with what I want to start looking for.

    My qualifications are....
    A.) Female, not for breeding purposes. Just for their size (since I'm just not into how big certain boas can get)
    B.) Trying to stay under $2000
    C.) It will be a pet, but that doesn't stop me from considering expensive morphs
    D.) I'm looking for something with a head stamp, as well as some super unique qualities. I really like some of those Super morphs that have the white head, but those tend to float slightly out of my price range. Maybe there's a few I'm missing that I can look into?

    I did get a very, very sweet offer from a local breeder I know for a Male Champagne, since she's male heavy right now and has a few male 2012 Champagnes she needs to move. But, I'm hesitating, because I'm torn between what I want (female, headstamp, pattern) and what most people would consider a 'deal you shouldn't pass up!'

    Obviously I'm seriously leaning towards getting myself what I want, but am I crazy for turning down a Champagne for less than half of the going rate? This breeder is the one I purchased my Pied from, and she is fantastic. I chat with her every few weeks or so, as we're members of a common Reptile club here, and she's also my feeder supplier.

    So, I'd love your thoughts and opinions! I don't have plans to breed. So at this point all of my animals are considered Pet-Only. I think that's why I can afford to be a little picky, haha. I only have limited space (no racks), so planning my next animal is a big consideration.

    What is a morph YOU'D suggest? Strictly for visual appeal.

    EDIT: I'm just looking for morph suggestions at the moment. Not actual animals for sale
