Albino or Lesser?

Can't go wrong with an albino but I say Lesser all the way I'm also one of the biggest lesser and blue eyed Lucy fans out there. Don't know if I'm the right Guy to give advice. Lol

droid!!!!

LESSER.. But im biased.. Im working on the BELs but thw good thing with lessers is that you can breed them to anything and get some sweet lookong snakes.. Albino your stuck until u get a nother one to recreate it

I would go with the albino

It takes just as long to make BEL's as it does albino morphs, if you start with female albino VS male lesser.

Here's a loose timeline, I realize 18 months is young to breed females but they do and will(I have eggs in the inc from two females that bred at 18 months old).

Buy a hatchling male lesser(May 2011) and breed it to a normal(Nov 2011) and hold back female lesser that hatches in June 2012
Raise that female lesser 18 months(Nov 2013) and breed to the male lesser(Nov 2014) for hatchling BEL's in June 2014

OR

Buy a female hatchling albino(May 2011) and raise her to breed at 18 months old(Nov 2012)
and hold back male morph het(June 2013)
Breed that male morph het to mom(Nov 2013) for baby albino morphs (June) 2014

In the end it is what you want to see in your tubs, I've got both projects going and they each are exciting in their own right.

That would be great to see popping out of an egg.

albino, imo, is a must have just for it's beauty - even if you never breed it - i have found, particularly among non-keepers, but to some degree with snake people as well that nothing has the WOW factor like an albino - the only thing that gets close to them as far as WOW factor goes, again, especially with non keepers would be a real good pied - i attached pics of my albino male and my pied female[IMG]http://ball-pythons.net/gallery/file...bald_thumb.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://ball-pythons.net/gallery/file...lash_thumb.jpg[/IMG]
