"Classique" is French for "Normal" and the locale is Épernay, Alsace-Champagne-Ardenne-Lorraine which is located in France. Captive bred reptiles in United States are less expensive (believe it or not) vs other countries. Take a look http://www.morphmarket.com/stores/map?cat=bps

Oooo! I like that! I put my vote down for 'Classique' Heehee.

I think i opened up a can of worms with this. I love all the suggestions, maybe we can start a pole here then hopefully the winning title will catch on, Since i don't know how to set up a pole thread maybe someone will do it. I think that wild natural is good but didn't a couple of morphs develup in the wild, so maybe just calling then naturals, or natural royals, or one of the other suggestions, i'd love to see these pretty guys with a better nomenclature, rather then normal.

I'm going with Classique :)


Maybe then we can discuss the change to Royals from Balls ;)

I am also a big fan of Normals vs the artificially selected specimens. However it's only fair to acknowledge that without the 100's of designer patters/colors available today the hobby would be nowhere near as large as it has grown. This very forum itself could never have reached 50k+ members without morphs. Case in point just look at the relatively small number of hobbyists involved with Garters, Bloods, Boas, etc, vs those involved with BP's. It's not because of the Normals.

Also, at least one experienced hobbyist advises against breeding Normals, and he has some valid points. Listen for yourself:

You wanted more "normal" pictures. Here's my girl. I find her absolutely beautiful!
She looks a bit round here, she had just eaten when I took this.
