    So I do have a female Banana 100% het clown that was born last month, I really like the banana gene, but wen i look at adults, they loose allot of there colors it looks like...

    And I am also looking at GHI, they look nice even wen they are an adult & get older colors still seem dark, Talking to a breeder now
    he has GHI, 100 het ghost, mojave.....

    banana is female tho
    GHI is Male.....

    I hope you aren't planning on housing them in the same enclosure no matter what sex they are. Are you planning on breeding later down the road or are these just pets?

    None of what you said, has nothing to do with what I am asking.
    I will only have 1 pet snake.
    I will not breed.
    If i was to buy a 2nd snake, I already know these animals are to be kept by them self....

    so if u wanna chime in on what i am asking for suggestion, please do, But you took it off the topic....
    I DO NOT OWN A SNAKE YET..... cant decide.....

    It does have something to do with what you are asking because my suggestions are going to be different if you are just looking for something that just looks nice vs if you are trying to make breeding plans. You mentioned the sexes of the animals and I'm just wondering the relevance of that. If it is not relevant, then I will ignore it.

    If you really like banana, I would look into getting a banana enchi yellow belly. Enchi and yellow belly both really help them hold on to the bright colors as they age. Enchi yellowbelly + either: albino, candy, candino, or lavender albino might also be an option you like.

    If you like GHI mojave, I would probably go with the yellow belly version if you want the color to stay as close as possible to what the hatchling looks like now, but it will still brown out a little bit.

    The GHI yellowbelly mojave, this is a female, and i want a female, these colors will stay dark like that?

    It will stay better than without yellow belly but it's still going to fade. Here is an example of an adult GHI mojave YB:

    here is an example of just GHI mojave:

    This is the same combo as the banana you are looking at. Mine is not fully grown, but close. Should help you get a good idea how the one in your link should look. The biggest change is going to be the dark stripes changing to be less pink/purple into more orange.

    I realize this is not one of the choices you gave, but if you really like banana and want one that holds its color, look for a Banana Butter or Lesser. Here is mine which is already three years old and about 1100 grams. For some reason the Butter or Lesser gene helps the Banana hold its yellows. Best of luck with whatever you decide.

    Well I just pulled the [emoji117] And Bought my first Ball Pythons, she is Female, just a month old.
    GHI, Mojave, Yellowbelly [emoji216]
    I like these patterns, plus all Dominant Gene's, if I ever want to try and breed this girl... How do U guys make a Super GHI, Mojave? These sound like a future plan....https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...367dd4633d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c6e77a382c.jpg

    There are a few ways to go about it.

    If your male was just GHI and nothing else you should get:
    1/16 super ghi Mojave
    1/16 super ghi Mojave YB
    2/16 ghi Mojave
    2/16 ghi Mojave YB
    1/16 Mojave
    1/16 Mojave YB
    1/16 super ghi
    1/16 super ghi YB
    2/16 ghi
    2/16 ghi YB
    1/16 YB
    1/ 16 normal

    If your male was GHI Mojave you would have the same chance of super ghi Mojave, and you would get some BEL if those appeal to you.
