    Banana Mochi(Mojave/Enchi) Comparison
    Does anyone have some more photos of a Banana Mojave Enchi? I fell totally in love with it on WOBP, but looking around more has revealed they don't like quite as enchanting as I first thought?

    WOBP has them as this beautiful fantasy looking baby:

    And then there's also this one I found for sale:

    http://www.dreptiles.com/wp-content/...oochm95_1b.jpg

    This one is 190g, so maybe that brilliant color fades quickly? Still beautiful, but the color doesn't compare to the one on WOBP. I'd love to see an updated photo of the Banana Mochi from WOBP if anyone knows what happened to that world first.

    By selective breeding. Using the best quality examples of the genes involved is how you get examples like that in the WOBP picture. And to be honest the breeder probably hatched more than one that year and the one they sent to the web site was probably the best looking one out of all of them

    Theres also a lighting difference between the two. The top is obviously brighter, but if you look carefully the animal's shadow even has a red tinge. The shadow for the second is grey. Never underestimate how lighting affects an animal.

    Took the words out of my mouth.

    Interesting.. I see what you're talking about, now. Well, I guess I might just wait for 2015 hatchlings to be on the market before I buy. Right now I can't find any Banana Mochi's besides that one.

    Yeah, I'm dying to have one like that. I've been searching everywhere and can't find one. :l
