i don't believe all morphs are inbred, although there is more than enough inbreeding going on in bp's. i think mabe normals just sit back in awe at them because they are jealous.
i think i pay attention to all my snakes equally, but that did cross my mind. i think morphs are just different.

Well, spiders are known to be very good feeders. Now, that's probably not part of the spider gene itself but probably a gene carried by the original spider that's been passed down to a lot of the offspring.
I doubt most dominant/codominant morphs are inbred, or the heterzygous form at least. People tend to breed their pastels to normals, or pastels to other morphs. I'd worry about a super pastel being inbred, but I doubt most pastels are inbred.
Albinos, Pieds, Axanthics and other recessive morphs on the other hand are probably inbred every which way. This is one of the reasons I have no interest in recessive morphs, aside from the pain in the butt it is to actually produce them. And, I'm just personally not a big fan of their looks.

I dont like spiders at all....I think my first morph will be a pastel because they are the mostinexpensive, I am asking for one of those for christmas '05.
-
i would like to have an axanthic, i think those are really cool.
-
I am about to cry, I want a Piebald so bad or some kind of morph but I dont have enough $$$$$ to buy one.....
-
BallPythonBabe448 you could always buy two hets and attempt to breed the piebald from them.
-
i have seen a 100% pair of hets for 1500.00. the price will come down a little more but not too much less (in the next year or two)
you never know what a wad of cash might get you in person!
someone may need/want the money enough to work on the price, don't be afraid to counter offer someone. cash does motivate some!
thanks

MARS !
so like what would be a reasonable offer for me and the breeder? like he has the for 8,000 males and 6,000 females.
-
maybe 20-30 % of asking price. any lower than that they might get offended. remember cash in hand might influence some. depends on the breeder alot. a private breeder make work with you more (if they like you). i think sometimes big breeders have too much overhead and they know there name will sell their animals sooner or later. just my thoughts though!
thanks
