oh my goodness! A Grand for a bumblebee pair? That's a little high. Offer him 1500 for the BEL and the bumble bee pair.

That's exactly what i was saying! I just paid $640 for a male bumblebee and i thought that was high.

Any other combo with russo, butter, lesser can yield just as clean and white of a snake but if you put the mojave gene in there you risk creating a less than white lucy.
It really all depends on what you prefer. Many people like the looks of the super mojave lucy because it is not pure white. Many prefer an ivory over a lucy because of this. But yes find out what made the snake. 8 Ball has an add on here. Email them and ask them about this particular breeder. Always do your homework before buying. Especially if they claim bloodlines from another well known breeder.
I recently purchased a 100% het clown pair. The breeder claimed they were produced by a breeder I actually know. So I asked this breeder and low & behold the breeder I had never heard of was telling the truth and the father to my hets is even pictured on the original breeders website.
Always check the background on what these people say before buying. A good breeder will understand your concern and happily give you the info you want.
WOW! This information was very helpful! The "White Diamond" is the type of BEL I dream of - pure white with obviously blue eyes. What about a mojave x lesser? What characteristics would a BEL crated from this lock have? The same gray head and dorsal stripe? Or is a lesser the same as a russo? ('m brand-spanking new to this).
To the OP - you have a very beautiful snake baby!!!!!!! :)

Mojave x Lesser/Butter are also white.
Butter x Butter, Butter x Lesser, Lesser x Lesser are also white with blue eyes. However, the lesser butter/butter butter/lesser lesser combo have the potential to get bug eyes.
Lesser and Russo are not the same. Lesser and Butter are the same.

Awesome! Thanks! Next question (don't flog me... lol) - what does a russo look like? (Never heard of them until now). I had always thought BELs were a mojave x lesser combo.
