    Thanks for all the insights everyone!

    It helps me out a lot. I guess I am just used to carpet pythons that start off ugly, get really pretty, and then some stay really pretty and some get muddy and ugly. Looks like a whole different "ball" game with balls.....

    Does anyone know how deserts and/or tigers hold up as adults?

    Re: Ball Python Morphs as Adults? Do they still look as nice?

    I know that's a weird way to think about it but that's how I look at it.

    Hahahahaha....I love this! Higher resolution morphs! Should be standard for breeders to give DPI <dots per inch> ratings of the offsprings parents!

    Deserts/Tigers are still really pretty as adults, but their yellow seems to fade with age. Not nearly the shocking color they are as hatchlings.

    Hahaha, that's exactly how I've always thought of it. It makes a lot of sense though. If you enlarge a small picture it's not nearly as crisp and clean as it was when it was small.

    Some do, some don't.

    Check out this Pastave from Royal Constrictor Designs. Still looks amazing, just as it did when it was young.
