New purchase

So, i just ordered myself a male fire and i should get him tuesday morning. First time ever ordering a reptile online so its exciting but at the same time im a little nervous haha. Im already thinking of projects for him and future females to buy in the near future. I will be sure to Update this thread when i get him and post pics. :D

I'm jealous! I bet the anticipation is killing you.

Oh it is. especially seeing i had to get rid of my other 2 snakes (in my signature) because my dad decided he didnt like them and thought they were getting too big, well i moved out of state and into my own place so this is exciting cause i can have however many snakes i want, aand i have a basement that could possibly turn into a breeding room muahah, but for now, i have to wait for my fire to get here lol.

Breeding room! MORE JEALOUS!

Congrats!
Everyone should have some Fire in their collection!:gj:
Can't wait to see pics when you get him on Tuesday.

The funny thing is, i wasn't even thinking of getting a fire, i mean i was looking at pinstripes, mojos, and spiders. Then randomly i saw some fires pop up in my price range and looked up what they can do when bred to others and i was pretty set on it.

Congrats! First one is always nerve wracking, but it gets easier!!

I'm not hating so please don't think it, but I don't really see the appeal with Fires. To me they look like faded normals. Am I missing something?

I feel the same about fires, they look like normals but when i look at a super fire that all changes.

Honestly they do look somewhat like normals which is why i overlooked them, but if you see what fires bred to other stuff can do, its pretty sweet. One of my Favorite combo is the Firebee (fire x bumblebee) I love the spider morph haha.

YES! :D The fire is an excellent brightener/clean up gene. While its not so impressive on its own it does wonderful things! Especially combined to things like enchi, yellowbelly, and pastel . . . well just about anything! Check out some of the morphs on WoBP it might change your mind.

Yes you are definitely missing something!
First a good quality Fire looks nothing like a normal.
And second you can't make Cream or Nuclear without Fire! Just a couple of the very hot projects that involve the Fire gene.
And here is the list of all the different Fire combos
