Opinions please on this possible purchase! (Male calico)

I am thinking of purchasing this animal and wanted some opinions! He isn't the highest white calico by any means but I love how bright he is and his almost ringer type part and maybe paradox spot? I don't know. I think he looks awesome especially for $350 shipped ;)

I think he would make some wicked pastel calicos or calico enchis :)

I really like him and 350 shipped is not bad at all!

im not experienced on calicos, but that one to me looks good i'd deffinitely go for it looks like he might have breeding potential with the right female.

He's real nice! I find that tiny blob of white really attractive. Get him!

I'm no good at identifying a good calico. But he sure is pretty!

Looks like he will be about a medium white but the pattern is sweet and he has some good highlighting going on not to mention a sick ringer and some paradox. I think hes rad! But I am a sucker for calicos!

I was thinking of breeding him to my bumblebee, enchi and firefly down the line. I would just rather have a unique, lower white calico like this one than an average higher white one.

I think he looks great!

If you look on Dan Wolfe's website and look at his gallery all his calicos are awesome looking!

i really like him marissa :gj:

Wow 350? For calico? How much do calicos usually run for now? Cus that sounds awesome. Either that or I totally overpaid for my sugar.... lol

I've been seeing a lot of male calicos for 400-500 not including shipping so he is a great deal!

He's really cool! I like him and I think he'll get more white with age, but I could be wrong.

I just emailed asking where to send the money :D kinda excited over here. How many animals in general have both a ringer and a paradox spot? Let alone look as awesome as he does :)

Im not sure. I dont think its super uncommon though. Heres my fire who has a ringer mark on his tail. I actually dont even know what it is but ive just heard people say it to me. I assume its like a weird marking?

Ringers and paradox are pretty common with calicos and sugars. I've seen many with ringers and I had one with a ringer and a dusting of black somewhat like the one you're wanting also.

Get him!

What are they? Just like weird pattern markings? I know paradoxes are normal pattern showing through on a morph but idk what a ringer is?

He looks awesome to me. Sweet.

He's awesome looking! Congrats :)

Thanks everyone! Be is being shipped out Tuesday so I will have some nice unboxing pictures or maybe a video for you! I love when the FedEx fairy comes :)

This little guy hatched out on 9/29 so he is just a little guy! And he is already
Switched over to rats :gj:

I want a female Calico that looks exactly like that. Awesome snake!

Wow here I am excited about my calico coming home and yours looks like something I really was looking for:(

Awesome pick-up! I love the color and pattern! I need some calico in my life!

Mike- a ringer is when the pattern dissolves over the top of the back, forming a 'ring' around the tail. The mark on the tail of your fire goes half way up and is still called a ringer, but a 'serious' ringer would look more like the calico pictured in the OP

Update: the FedEx fairy will be bringing this little guy to my tomorrow!!! I'm so excited!!!!

He's shipping me my female from the same Pastel Calico sire, different dame either tonight with yours or tomorrow. Can I piggyback on your thread and post some pics?!

Of course! Ill probably start a different thread tomorrow when he gets here though. Have you posted a pic of your female? Dan wolfe's calico stuff is amazing, even when the animal isn't high white they are stunning!

Ohhhh thats a hot calico MrLang! Calico's a hot morph!

And you are right about those flames! Holy crap!

She was 450 shipped and thanks! I asked specifically if she was from the clutch yours was born from because I like him so much. Breed that guy to a pastel enchi... DANG!

Our snakes' dad is completely awesome and a tribute to keeping good breeding stock.

That's a great price for such a hot calico!

I feel like I've been decently lucky as far as coming across some awesome animals for decent prices. I am more than willing to spend a little more or better quality!

Whaaaaaa??? $450shipped? I thought calico females were more in the 600-800 dollar range. Huh, thats cool. Congrats!

Your male has awesome coloring
And mrlang yours has great coloring as well. Mine is still too young to see the color it'll have. But I can't wait to see her beauty grow XD as I feed her :)

Females usually do sell in the 600-800 range
