    mojave, lesser or butter
    Hey just wondering which morph you guys prefer and why?
    mojave, lesser platinum, or butter?
    (more combo potential etc.)

    Thanks!

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I've got a mojave and a butter. Both look awesome in their own way, but the butter takes the cake for me. I talked to many lesser and butter owners to hear their thoughts and see how their particular snakes have changed color with age. In the end, I bought the butter because I believe the butter tends to have a more intense yellow color and lightens with age. Keep in mind, there will be variances within any morph you buy.

    I love my lesser - but I'm also in the same camp that believes that lesser and butter are the same. Put a bunch of both in the same tub, and see if you can pick out with 100% accuracy which one is which.

    And I have a very bright and light lesser, that others might call a butter.

    I used to only care about Lessers it's only very recently that I added a Mojave to my collection and now I love them both equally.

    And when you think about combos you can't go wrong with having both :gj:

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    Butter due to the fact that lessers are more available than butters.

    Lesser for sure. But I prefer Lesser x Mojave BEL's.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I like both they do some different things to different morphs so both are in my collection..

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I used to say Lesser/Butter (probably same morph genetically but they came from two different "daddys") but now I'm not sure. I prefer the way the Lessers and Butters look but as far as morph potential, stuff like the Mystic Potions are really making a case for the Mojo. I say you need to have both in any collection and the low price of the mojo makes this pretty condusive.

    When/if I ever restart a BP morph collection I'm going to get both right off the bat along with some others.

    I like Lessers/Butters a little more than Mojaves, but all have great potential for combos...

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    Base morph -- I keep and prefer Butters. :D

    However, with regards to combos, I think all three have their virtue. I find Mojaves most intriguing due to their carrying a "red/mauve hue" to rather than a yellow one. ;) MUCH yet to be done with Mojaves!!!!

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I own a lesser and a mojo. They will have a date sometime next year if all goes to plan. My brother is on the butters. I just like lessers and mojos a lot. And mixed gene lucys imo are a better investment.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I have a mojo, will be adding a butter in the near future, I like the two extremes dark with the moj, and really light and yellow with the butter.... If i was personaly making a blue eyed lucy i would so go with super butter...... I am of the personal beleif that butter and lesser are simmilar but not the same kinda like cinni or black pastel, do the same thing just one does the job way better.............

    Lessers. I don't know what it is about them, they're just beautiful to me! I own 1.0 mojave and I'm in the process of purchasing 1.1 lessers with hopes of breeding some BELs in the future, one way or another!

    i went with the mojo. i like the combos better than the lesser and butter combos.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I picked mojo because I think it makes better looking crosses with other morphs (jigsaw, hypo mojave etc.)

    Yes, lessers and butters make a whiter super but I find them a bit more boring than a super mojo with a bit of pattern.

    Also, I have a hunch that an albino super mojo might actually be a pretty hot morph whereas I see no point in an albino super lesser/butter.

    Just my opinion for what it is worth.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    i prefer butter's, i love the bright rich yellows and when combined with other morphs such as spider they seem to affect them in a differant way.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I have a lesser male/female and a mojave female. I love the lesser's a lot more than the mojave. The butter looks just like a lesser. I have been researching if there is a super lesser which I thought would be a lucy and I have found mixed information. One source reports that there is no supper butter as of yet and another source reports that there is. However, I would go with the lesser over the butter because of the lucy potential.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    i have a butter cause he was the best looknig out of the snakes i seen at the show. Plus the guy had butter cheaper than the lessers for some reason soI jumped on him and a pinstripe male at the same table. I think I spend about 700 bucks at each show I go to when I have funds to consider buying. I hope this year to have a few to sell or trade for other morphs. :D but only time will tell. if not I work on getting an older lesser and a spider females. I think.

    Super Butter is a very clean white snake with sapphire blue eyes.

    Re: mojave, lesser or butter
    I'd say lesser on it's own, but it would be a tough call to pick one for combo potential

    Dave763, that is a gorgeous BEL!
    IMO the butter and lesser are the same morph with two names.
