    Please help me choose which Coastal carpet female!

    I need some help you guys...and it's a first! I'm excited to see that the two pure Coastal carpet Jag Sib females from one of Mike Curtin's '12 clutches that I've been eying has become available and I'm having just the hardest time deciding which one to go with. This is seriously the first time this has happened, I usually know exactly what snake I'm going with but I'm having the hardest time! I think it's because both look so different and I like the looks of each...so I'd like some thoughts to maybe help be decide. I already have my boyfriend's vote and Mike's opinion but I want more opinions

    Here's Female 1: I really like her overall dark colors (I seem to fancy darker snakes in general) and her thick bands with the subtle white coming up from her belly. Cute face to boot too.



    (From FB, I believe it to be the same female):


    And Female 2: A lot lighter than Female 1 with lots of blushing and a bit busier pattern. Has a cute random spot on her back and a strong head pattern.





    I'd like to get back to him with my decision later today but wanted some more quick thoughts on these two beauties. *These pics were used with permission from Mike so please don't use them without contacting him first*

    Thanks!

    I'm always partial to the cool head patterns on carpets, and that first one has a perfect looking script H! Very nice pair though, can see why it's hard to decide, haha

    Thanks for your input! She does have a lot of blushing and lighter tones over the other. Keep the opinions coming!

    The first little girl is just gorgeous! I like her pattern and color a lot. If I had to choose between the two, the first little girl would be my pick!

    Thanks guys! Keep them coming.

    Chet: I would love to since they're both stunning, but I need to hold back some money for another addition and some feeders once they get what I need in stock
