    Orange dream- busy or reduced pattern advice?
    I have been searching the market for a male OD to add to my collection. I have a female OD that is growing very quickly and I'm trying to find a nice male to breed her to. These are a few pics of my female OD...

    I want to pair her up to a bright male (I'm hoping for super OD's). I've been looking around and have found a few bright boys that I think would be good to have and come from some hot parents. I'm considering this boy from cape fear constrictors: http://capefearconstrictors.com/incu...009.pic.00.jpg If you check out his clutch (8) on the incubator tab of the website, you get to see his parents. He is bright and his OD father is really nice. One of the things that is holding me back is the amount of pattern that he has, in comparison to my OD female. I want to know if you guys think that his busy pattern might make any future OD/super OD offspring between him and my OD girl unappealing. I generally like my snakes to have a more reduced pattern, but a grand majority of the reduced pattern OD males I have seen are pretty dark (this might be the brightest reduced pattern OD male I have seen: http://ozzyboids.com/IMAGES/13-014M-2.JPG) Any opinions would be great on which snake you like better or your specific opinion on a busy or reduced pattern OD.

    They brighten as they age so that little one that's dark will probably be a lot nicer at 500 grams.
    I would hold out and get the cleanest one possible.

    He is the one that has a little black rectangle close to his head on the yellow stripe going down his neck (just to make sure we are looking at the same one:)). He is going for a fair price too..Do you think he would be a good match for me OD girl? His father: http://www.morphmadness.com/cl7.jpg
