Opinions on lesser mojave bel pairing
Got this girl to initialy pair her to a bumblebee or a lemon blast..thing is I am trading one of my others for a pastel lesser & an enchi male or female.
Will be pairing the pastel lesser to a pinstripe & calico..considering the pastel lesser x lesser mojave bel..should I stick to the bumblebee or lemon blast plan with this female, breed her to yhe lesser pastel or consider another option to optimize future plans..my intentions are to hold back most morphs for future plans..your opinions are appreciated

Hi,
One consideration - if you breed the pastel lesser to the lesser/mojo BEL how will you know what the combo's are in any BEL's that pop out?
That's why I tend to dislike combo BEL's that can't be picked out - any you get could be lesser/mojo's, super lessers, or pastel lesser/mojos or pastel superlessers.
Unless I missed a meeting and there is a visual difference to any of the above?

Agreed, it would be hard to tell the difference between super lessers and lesser mojaves. Both are clean white snakes. It would also be hard to figure out which ones are pastels. In a pastel lesser x lesser you MIGHT be able to distinguish the pastel supers from the supers, but would just be an educated guess. With the addition of the mojave gene, it would be even more difficult. Pastel mojave lesser, or super lesser? Can't tell until you breed it to a few normals. That means that until you prove them, you won't be able to ask for more than the value of a lesser mojo. Kind of a waste IMO.
