I am the only one here to think that being so certain about what you will get out of this takes some of the fun away? They will be hot and valuable snakes but it's not a cross that I would do, even if I was ever lucky enough to own the snakes to do it. I am so looking forward to the day when I can cross my BP pewter and cinny pewter just because of all the possible beautiful babies that could come out of that cross, if the odds went that way I could even end up with a super pewter and a silver bullet but equally I could get a sterling silver or silver streak, pewter, BP pewter, super pastel, cinny/BP, pastels, black pastels etc. I will never know until they pip.

You might be :P

How many times have you seen a super pewter to a silver bullet breeding? :
Breeding's like yours while killer puts you competing against 1000's of other sellers to find homes for them.
Not nearly as much competition selling Super Pewters and Silver Bullets.

That is one awesome pairing IMO Congrats

Awesome!!! Two of my favorite combos! :bow:

Thanks everyone!

But multi gene snakes are hard to sell too because the high price tag! Base morphs are alot more desired because of the lower prices. I talked to Brain at BHB about this one time and he said base morphs are his bread and butter! Awesome pairing though and can't wait to see the babies!

I wasn't thinking about this from a $$$'s point of view, that's why I used the word 'fun'! I understand that it makes sense for a commercial breeder but for a hobbyist? There is also the point that there will always be a limited market for high end expensive multi gene combination morphs. From a marketing point of view I think that there will always be more demand for the the snakes that will enable hobbyist breeders to produce their own so, in this case, pewters even up to sterlings and silver bullets but less actual demand for anything higher than that. I also think that hobbyists want the excitement of not knowing what morph they are going to get from every egg so super cinny to super pastel makes sense for a breeder but a hobbyist could have so much more fun doing other things with both of those morphs. Wouldn't it be more fun putting the super pewter to say an enchi fire or some recessives rather than just a different combination of the same genes that it already carries?

i dont like playing the lottery either:D super nice pairing:gj::gj::gj: good luck
