    Is this a scam?
    I have no intention of purchasing these animals, but thought this just seemed odd. Are the animals this guy is selling anything special? They seem like regular morphs and he attached a fancy name and a huge price tag.

    So Raven and McKenzie are morphs, or some line?

    I believe they are actual morphs. Raven being dominant and McKensie being co-dom. I have not worked with either and this is just information I have read in passing. Raven is on world of ball pythons.

    I found some references for them. I guess it just seems to me like the gene doesn't really do much for the look of the animal, so not sure why there's such a huge price tag.

    LOL. You sound like me. Just because something is slightly different and rare does not necessarily make it worth money out of my pocket. It still needs to be eye pleasing, but some will pay big money for rare alone.

    Too rich for my blood, but that ultramel bamboo is beautiful.
    I like the mojave raven too, but really like most things mojave.
    I guess I have "cheap taste" preferring the 2 less expensive snakes out of the 4...

    Too expensive for what they are for me also. The ultamel/bamboo is nice. Add some clown in there and it would be awsome I think. The mojave combo is too dark for my taste but that is just me. The other two are just blah...

    Agreed on the other two...
    The Mojave is on the dark side for my liking too, but still kinda dig it.
    Clown could definitely be a cool addition.

    can't speak about Raven (I really don't care for it) but the McKenzie works a lot like enchi. With the super form being near desert in color and pattern. Personally I think once it becomes more available it will be big but that's just my humble opinion

    I saw a pic of the McKenzie and yeah, it looks a lot like an Enchi.

    Very nice (not thousands of dollars nice, but nice). I guess the one on morphmarket is mixed with a Pin and it's hard to see anything else.

    It's not very noticeable in normal form in combos imo, it's the super that does big things but your right not thousands.

    I just wanted to throw this out there... I'm 90% sure the raven is actually a co dominate gene with the super form being near identical to a super chocolate. I don't really want to do the digging but there are pictures on Facebook of either a super raven itself or a chocolate raven and it looks near identical to a super chocolate... Take away from that what you want. I think the Mckenzie stuff has some potential in the future especially once the price comes down a bit. I can't wait to see some more combos
