Question about Gravel ball python
Ive been interested on producing highways but i cant afford a highway so i will rather buy a gravel. My question is what characteristics does a gravel have and how much are they now? Would it be better to buy a super gravel instead? Ive been searching around for prices and other info on the morph but i havent found much

I was hoping the super form was a bit cheaper. Its very difficult to find any

somehow i fail to understand that. its not that i dont believe you, but who would pay more for one less gene? shouldnt the extra yellowbelly make highways more expensive than gravels?
is it because when you breed highway to something else, gravel and yellowbelly are too hard to tell apart?

Let me start out by saying I have no yellowbelly complex in my collection so I'm by no means an expert. I posed this same question to Sean @ Exotics by Nature. This is his answer copied from his facebook page.
" Clay it all comes down to what you produce. With a highway you will produce both YBs an Gravels BUT sometimes these can be hard to spot so you are paying more money to not have the YB involved. We didn't set this price structure but we believe in it."
According to Sean prices are as followers
highway 7500
gravel 10,000
super gravel 20,000

I would gave thought gravels were about 1k- 2k cheaper than highways. I guess i will have to go for a different project since they are a bit pricey right now lol. What morphs are getting alot of attention that sell for about 3-5k. I know ghi are one of those is there any other?

wow, okay... i guess i would just buy a highway male and some ivory females and breed highway to ivory :D . and later highway to highway, to produce some super gravels :D . that price difference is big enough to simply use ivory to get around the morph ID issue.

I just bought a "YB" trio but was told the parents were either YB OR possible asphalt x YB ...
so I have baby 1.2 YB but possibly they were asphalt .... A very knowledgeable friend said two of my babies look like gravels on YB ... I'm so confused !!
How can I tell ? I have photos but I just joined . I will have to see how to include photos
