Really tough narrowing it down to number 1.

I'm going to go with JDConstriction's "Stormtrooper".

-still has BP pattern
-flawless black and white
-no freaking clue what it actually is so it's a fun puzzle
-crazy change over time

JKR's Pompeii and variations are a close second though, the colors on those babies, whew!!!

Ultramel Orange Dream....Super Enchi...Bananas...I like bright yellow snakes that have a contrasting colored pattern.

Totally!! The Stormtrooper is amazing!! :D


I love them all, its hard to pick. If I had to narrow down to a gene or color I would go with Axanthic, all the morph variations look awesome...

I'd never heard of the Stormtrooper. Wow very pretty. Do they stay black and white? Is it its own morph, or a fancy name for a gene mix?

Unless I have been misinformed the stormtrooper did not prove to be genetic, great looking snake that so far can't be replicated.

That's a shame. Maybe it was actually a paradox or chimera.

I’m not a big fan of BPs in general but the mystic potions, BELs, and pieds are fierce!

Lightning pied is up there for me. Specifically ones that are 50% white with a roughly even ratio between pattern and no pattern. Pieds in general that go too much in either direction (low/high white) aren't as appealing imo.

Couldn’t choose between Albinos or Hi White Pieds


Thankfully I’ve got both :)

Lavender albinos and pieds, these 2 are probably my favourite at the moment, but my hurricane is a stunner too [emoji2371][emoji2357]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3d5e81a9c0.jpg

As far as I understand, JD is still working on figuring it out. I haven't heard an official update that he couldn't replicate it. He has had others in his collection with the same what he calls "Dirty", where they start off clean looking but over time they develop darkening, much like a cow retic, or spots on CG/banana to a lesser extent. We know SK Axanthic is part of the equation, but other than that we do not have a definitive answer on anything. I don't think he has even managed to prove out "Dirty" as a morph, which is understandable since you can't even see it at first.

i can agree. Its hard to find a really perfect pied

Visually, I love the spider gene and what it does in combinations. I originally wanted one with high white on the sides and would have chosen that as my favorite. But I couldn't get behind supporting a gene that produces animals with a neurological disorder.

Hmm. I'll be interested in following his progress. It looks like an interesting gene.

I absolutely agree with you about the spider gene.

But if I had to pick a favorite, I would go for an ultramel, coral glow, axanthic, and any pied.

Not into balls, but if I ever got one, it'd have to be a high-white pied.
