Must haves

Slow board day. Here's one for everybody.

As a collector what is the must have animal that no collection is complete without? I'm going to go with Purple Passion.

As a breeder, what is your must have tool? I am going to say Enchi.

I'm guessing you meant this to be a ball python exclusive thread so I won't mention anything else...

In the ball python realm I think everyone needs a piebald/clown/both. Personally I prefer clowns so that's what I'm going with.

As a breeder I would've said enchi but since that was already mentioned I'm going to say Mojave/phantom. Mojave is definitely more popular but I'm personally going to focus more on phantom so I thought I'd throw that in there too since most combos are pretty similar.

I'm starting to hear a lot more buzz around phantoms lately, which is good for me since about half of my breeders have the gene. I actually prefer it in combos over Mojave.

It seems like there has been quite a bit of a buzz around darker animals lately. Phantoms are darker then Mojaves so maybe that's why.

Must have? Hypo / Leopard / Enchi / OD / CG those can take any mutation to a whole new level of WOW

My general philosophy so far has been, "yes, but what if enchi?" and "okay, now let's make it pied!" Everything else is bonus candy. I am a simple person with simple needs.

I'm still waiting on my perfect OD. Hopefully I run across one soon. I missed the boat on CG. Leopard is awesome but runs counter to what I am trying to do. Hypo is not my thing but wouldn't discount having the gene for resale purposes. One of my Enchis is het hypo and she is gravid by her son so maybe I will end up with some whether I intended it or not.

LOL. You sound like me. It is not a question of if I am going to add enchi only when.
