Guys..cmon, piebalds? really?

Pieds are one of my favorite ball pythons. I can only dream of having one some day.

I don't understand the extreme popularity of it. It seems so many people think "hey, I really like morph X, but you know what would be better? A morph X-piebald combo!"

It's like putting ketchup, peanut butter, ice cream, and hot sauce together. They are all great in their own, and some tasty things do mix well together, but when you try to do all of it together it is just too much to be good.

Half and half piebalds and extreme low-white piebalds look great IMO, but I don't like them at all once they're mixed with other morphs.

Piebald? Lets talk about the real issue. CATS! Why in the WORLD does ANYBODY own those things past their first month of life? I just don't get it.

I just looked up piebald morphs in a google image search... and they seem pretty to me! I would take one of those over an albino (or any of the other "plain" morphs) any day. I just think those snakes, expensive as they are, are kind of bland looking with no real pattern to speak of.

I :love: Piebalds. Really.

I can't say I am a huge piebald fan but I'm not a hater either. Sometimes I think they look really funny because their pattern is broken up with just plain white space, and sometimes I think it looks really cool because they may be a white snake with random patterns on them, idk how to explain it. But I am more of a fan for low white than I am for the high ones.

:gj::gj::gj: agreed, not understood by me at all either. I HATE that my mom makes me live with them. (but one of em is still a kitten so shes ok for now lol)

I LOVE the look of the piebald.

There are WAY too many that I like, though.

I like high white pieds and though I really like Lucy's (both black and blue eyed), I can't get past the white/light head, so a high white pied is perfect for me because their heads remain dark. It's all a matter of opinion, though.....

That is a great point. I have only seen two types of bp's in person -- normals and a spider -- the two that I have! I always thought spiders were kind of ugly, but decided to buy one about a month ago -- picked it up for 100 bucks. I figured for that price I could grow to love them. And do you know what? I think they look way better in person.

I always thought piedbalds were kind of odd, but I think some of them look pretty cool -- I think it all depends on the pattern.
