Re: Paradox
Yeah I thought it was random. I wouldn't pay what some people ask for a paradox with it just being a random thing. I've seen a paradox male at a show and the owner was asking $500 without a genetic guarantee. It's not worth the risk when you can get some cool looking morphs for $500. Mohave, Pastel, YB, Albino, Ghost and etc others I'm starting to see in the $500 range. Now if you just want a pet, go ahead. I would keep any that I produce just because what they are and how they look....but unless I get a super deal on one I'm staying out. LOL maybe I'm just cheap.

Re: Paradox
They are named Paradox's because no one knows what is going on with the genetics that causes the random colors from appearing in morphs that they should be absent from. I don't think anyone out there is trying to pass these by as genetic inheiritable.

No one that I know of....oh man do I wish they had the genetics to reproduce this morph.

I'm am pretty cheap too, but can honestly tell you that if I produced a paradox anything that looked half as cool as the ones jake or albey posted that I would have a huge price tag on it just incase someone wanted it more than I did. And as far as the paradox lucy goes, if I could afford it I would pay whatever for it. Might even trade a kidney or something!

$500 for a paradox would be cheap to me. Even if it was just a pet and not a genetic trait.

Well $500 might be cheap to you lol. For an unproven morph thats been seen in the wild for a good bit and ends up still being unproven after all this time. I think I'd rather buy a pair of clown hets, but then again this is just me.
