Opinions: Which Lesser reigns supreme?

If people are breeding both lessers and butters for lighter colors, I wonder if there's going to be any noticeable difference in a few years?

Depends on if the lightness gets passed genetically. It could, like many things, be random. I guess the only way to tell would be to 1. breed animals for bring dark, and for being more faded, not letting the offspring that don't show the selected trait breed, then comparing all this to a control group of animals bred with little to no concern or 2. Clone the animal.

Upon cloning an animal you see which traits were passed genetically, and which are just random (pattern is probably random, while being a lesser would be genetic).

I agree. :)

i like number 3 lol

i voted #1 because i think that dark browns and yellow are all to common these days.. the lighter more 'tan' colors are more appealing.. to me anyways.. to each there own!

I voted for number 1, he's super light, I like that.

However #3 is so different from the norm, it would be interesting to see what he could produce!!

They are both smokin!!

I voted 1st cause it's more yellow.

But second is also nice, with a good contrast and nice blushing ! I really like the blushing on my lesser/mojave :)

#1 because it looks alot like my lesser...#3 is not lesserish at all...but i like it...#2 is smoking hot and looks like het. Red lesser...im not sure if i would call that just a lesser..

If you were to have just one snake. Visually, 1 or 2. But usually the "browned out" lessers #3 make nicer bees. (Lesser bees and Queens).

Well, I can't vote for that one, but I like the #1 sibling holdback myself. That one is the most like what I imagine the Lesser I will have one day will look like, color wise.

I did see some amazing photos of Lessers just a few days ago, with insane amounts of blushing I just drool over, so I am going to be one extremely hard to please person when it comes time to get my Lesser. lol
