    one more morph genetics question ;)
    Ok...if a breeding goal of mine was blue eyed leucistic and I liked the cleanest ones possible what would the best morphs be for the parents?

    lesser x lesser and mojo x lesser make the cleanest BELs, the mojo x mojo BELs are the ones with the "dirty" lavender-colored heads

    And Butter x Butter.

    It's said that white diamonds are the cleanest and most white BEL. They're made from het Russos.

    I bring it up in every thread that mentions this, but I have never seen a clean one in real life, they all had a yellow dorsal stripe.

    In my experience, Lesser or Butter x Lesser or Butter seems to be the whitest, but there is a chance for bug eyes. Lesser or Butter x Mojaves are normally white, but I have seen a few that yellow out.

    Yep, I was going to recommend the same as JohnNJ just posted. You want the whitest of white, go with the super russo.

    I've always heard mixing the morphs will make cleaner BELs. For example: mojave x lesser, lesser x butter, butter x mojave.

    which his dorsal stripes are faded, but still visible. Here is what all the ones I have seen in real life look like http://nicebalz.com/image/data/collectionsnake11.jpg

    I never got why people say they are the whitest.
