Leopards

[Marrissa]

Why are they so expensive? I fell in love after seeing the leopard pinstripe and went looking on fauna to check out prices and see what was out there. I was shocked to see them regularly over 1300 for males, females (what I want) obviously more. Is this a relatively new morph? I was expecting 300-600 since it's a dominant morph.

Leopards are in high demand right now, plus not to much has really been done with them until recently.

Leopards are awesome! The pattern change they bring to the table is sweet .

As already stated there is a pretty high demand for them right now and they haven't been around for too long.
Plus as Hooblah stated the way they just blow up patterns really brings a ton to the table!

Here is our Cinny Leopard that we got from Ozzy earlier this year!
We have thrown him in a few times with our Lesser but haven't seen anything out of him yet this year.
But we have big plans for him this coming season!

Here's a great video Ralph Davis put out. Leopard makes some amazing stuff and its super form is a pied so what's not to like?

Aren't leopards all het pied? That may be why their price is still higher.

Imo leopards are just high quality het pieds lol

Leopard are in the $800 / $1000 range, which is hardly what I would call expensive.

There are still much to do with them and unlike pinstripe they have not been around as long.

[Marrissa]

I haven't seen any on fauna for less than a 1,000. I wouldn't mind 800 or 900 at all for one I like.

Thanks for the explanation guys! I was wondering it it was still relatively new, or if it had been around and new combos came out giving it a craze, or what.

Mike- I thought with leopards they are an "acts like super" with pied? Like with lesser and mojave? Still trying to wrap my mind around all the BP genes and understand how they interact so just asking for clarification.

Leopards are all het Pied, making them incomplete dominant....I guess.lol. I've seen them for $800-1200. I'm looking forward to seeing what ours can do next season. We have a ton of Pieds and Pied combos we could test.

[vankmen.]

If they are all het pied , does leopard to leopard create pieds. Or do they have to be bred to a homozygous pied to produce more pieds ?
