    Silver Bullet Clown?
    Hi guys
    I'm kind of new to this forum and are interested in the silver bullet and the killer clown projects but am having a hard time deciding. So, I came up with the idea of a silver bullet clown. What would one look like?

    I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with the Axanthic Clown (not that I'd turn one down!) The clown is one of my favourate morphs and some of the Axanthic mixes are out of this world, but together, just not doing it for me...

    I'd love to see how an silver bullet clown turns out, could be nice!

    that axanthic clown actually looks like a SnakeKeeper line axanthic if that would be a VPI axanthic it would be stunning since everyone knows that VPI produces the best Albinos and Axanthics around

    All Axanthics "brown out". VPI a liitlle less than the SK line -- possibly. I would ask, when was the last time anyone posted a 1000+ gram Ax Spider or Ax Pinstripe? All hatchlings look great- a select few morphs hold their color or GET BETTER with age. ;)

    thats not true !!!!!!! i have seen many VPI adults that were black and silver/grey as they were when they were hatched . the snakekeeper and joliff lines are the ones most famous for browning out . im sure there are some VPI's that do as well but from what i seen myself VPI holds its colors well into adulthood

    That is exciting news for sure. :banana: I must say, I did not know that was the case. I am sure someone with adult VPI Ax combos will post pics -- love to see them!!!:salute:

    John Dague (jpman78 on here) works with SK line axanthics if I remember right. He's posted pictures of his adults and I gotta say I was surprised by how well they held their (lack) of color. On the other hand, I've seen plenty of adult VPI axanthics that looked almost normal, so it runs both ways.
