Calico/Sugar Opinions

Just kinda want to see what everyones opinions on the calicos are. Besides way expensive! Are they not very common and thats why you hardly ever hear about them? Or are they just so subtle in a low white that nobody has chosen to work with them?

What do you foresee there price doing?

And as always if you have one and want to show off some pics they would be greatly appreciated.

And last but not least would they be an animal you would add to your collection?

I am a big fan of sugars and calicos. I love what you can do with them, and I love those high white sides. Pretty much been a fan since Tinley, seeing the "dreams" in person was just awesome.

I adore them! High whites with that crazy orange...Gorgeous.

And just thinking about the crosses can make you nuts. I am excited to see what Next World Exotics (Jon) comes out with.

I got to see a calico two years ago and those and clowns have been my Ivory tower snakes ever since. I love Calicos they are a pied with more pattern. :D

I think they will be a great animal to work with. The possibilities, like most morph combos, are endless!

Are there several different lines of them too? Thought I read somewhere that one was more orange and the other was more normal looking with white sides.

There are different lines, but I'm not sure who had them first, or who has what. Most of the large breeders have them in some form.

I think Morton Wright has some AWESOME calicos... His are high orange. VPI, TSK, NERD, NWE all have them too. (I'm sure I'm forgetting some...)

RDR imported his but sold them to TSK
