    Trip to Robin Abernethy's
    Earlier today I made a trip to Robin Abernethy's (rabernet) place to pick up a Female Pastel produced by the infamous Lemon Pastel "Winston" while there she allowed me to snap a few pictures of her collection. Admittedly Robin does not have any $10K Banana's or Pastel Lavender Albinos but what she does have in her collection she has is A+++ quality and have been individually hand picked which is why people stand in line (and literally wait years) to get the offspring her animals produce.

    Robin also keeps a few other select animals that she has grown attached to over the years.

    I have cinni envy, every time I see a picture of Robins cinni I just drool. Most cinni's look like fancy normals but not that one. Iit is amazing and just gets better as it grows.

    :yes: :yes: :yes:

    Awesome pictures, Aaron! But as you noted, you had awesome subjects to shoot! :D Robin's careful, patient, meticulous selections for her collection is an example anyone serious about breeding should emulate.

    And Robin...how did I not know you had a black milk??? :P

    yepp- i can 100% confirm that- her animals are top notch. i save a lot of pics of morphs and combos. i have a single casefile with very nice looking basemorphs. there are definatly some of her snakes in it. espacially that wicked cinnamon that she bought- its so sick.

    and i do it the same- till now ive no mojave. just because i have one picture of a mojave which is my perfect mojo. when i find one like him, i buy it for sure- no matter if the price is two times as high as normal mojos...

    and i think that will be definatly a business part. some guys go for morphs and combos- other go of and breed selectiv to encrease the look and the better looking combos- the snakes will definatly hold their value, cause i dont think there are much of em.

    just look at pastels- thousands of pastels- but the perfect pastel doesnt cost as much as a normal pastel but rather twice as much as the averge pastel...

    Really nice pics and the snakes are OUTSTANDING examples of each morph. I love the cinni and caramel.
