I agree Ed I plan on mixing all my co-doms together. The closest thing I have to normal breeding females are Hets, granite and reduced. The future is in the combinations. :carrot:

Butters have more yellow. The baby butters have a darker red or darker blushing with more yellow on their backs and dorsal. It may be a subtle difference but it is still a difference. I like the Butter crosses more than I like the Lesser crosses. The Lesser Woma purple snake is still the bomb though! I am praying for one of those this year. The Butter will make you a better cross if you breed it out in my opinion. But people want to buy Lessers because they think that they will produce the Platty Daddy with them. Ralph made a Butter Daddy two years ago so they are very similiar and the same can be done with a Butter. I found the Butters to be way stronger feeders as well. I have two year old Lesser females that are 1000grams and won't eat while I have a 10 month old Butter female that weighs in at 920grams. Buy what you want and what makes you happy as they are both awesome snakes and the combo's from them blow everything else away in my book! I have bred my Lesser male and Butter male to different females this year. I will post pics when the babies start to hatch so you can make up your own minds!

i disagree with this comment. i'm sure there are plenty of lessers that feed extremely well. i know mine does. and it didn't take everyone a long time to reproduce lessers!

maybe it's just your lessers that didn't feed strong?:rolleyes:

i think butters and lessers may be similiar to different line of pastels like a graziani and a lemon? just my thoughts.


i think both look nice! :D
