    Quality Fire?
    Hey everyone :) this question may have already been asked but I was just wondering what you guys consider to be a quality fire. What do you guys look for in a nice fire ball python morph? I'm thinking about adding one to my collection and I want a really nice one. I'll post a picture of the one I like at the moment, she has a kinda busy pattern but her colors are nice. Would you buy or pass on her?

    Thanks for all the help guys :)

    Even though I prefer a more reduced pattern, everything else is top notch! I love how bright and creamy, the high contrast, and that awesome headstamp. Nice find!

    You can always breed her to more reduced/clean animals to work towards your perfect fire ;)

    That's what I was thinking too :) I really like the light and dark contrast as well. So maybe I'll use her to pass down her bright fire color and use a male to reduce some of that pattern. That's a great idea :)

    I think that she is very well with it! Everyone needs some very nice fire in their collection :)

    I think her color is great. Yes a bit busy, but color is still nice. :)

    Exactly! I want to add fire, enchi, and yellow belly to my collection because I think those three are the most important in my opinion. They just make everything better! :) and this girl had a very modest price so I might just snap her up, just not 100% sure yet.

    She is bright and lovely, although she doesn't have the high blushing and flames I prefer.

    Bred to the right males, she should make amazing babies.

    Fires are all about color as far as I'm concerned and she's got that covered. Patterns are added to the taste of the breeder and I dig the busy, whacky ones in most combos.

    She looks lovely :) I love fires and what they do to some morphs. Here is a photo of my Fire male. Was told he was an excellent example. Like others said, they vary, color, pattern, fading, its all up to what you think is beautiful. :)

    Oh wow he's gorgeous! Love how dark the black is, that long tail stripe and all that pretty blushing! And the more I look at her and the more comments I read the better I feel about possibly buying her :)

    Awesome headstamp!! Depending on what you aim to produce, I would pick her up.

    As said already- busy is not always bad. I have a few 0.1 Fire 100% Het Clowns that are not too busy that I paired with a busy Butter 100% Het Clown resulting in one ovy so far. The 1.0 Butter 100% Het Clown is pretty busy, but I like busy Clowns, so that is fine for me. The females both look the same with random spots. Cell pic of the one ovy does not do justice to the creamy color....

    I like the color. Is a stripe a fire trait or just a coincidence that a lot of fires have some sort of stripe on there tail?

    No, that's a trait of the gene.

    OP- I'd pass on that one just because I think blushing is really important in fires.
