    Updated Super Crystal and Crystal Photos...
    Here are some updated photos of the Super Crystal and the Pastel Super Crystal who have both shed for the second time and are both males approaching 200 grams. The yellow did not really come through on the photos of the Pastel Super Crystal, but he has a yellow tint similar to the orange on the Super Crystal...
    I also added adult photos of a Crystal female and a Pastel Crystal male that were taken today!
    Let me know what you think,

    :wuv: Wow I love it...

    Is it Co-Dom or Recessive? And dare I ask...how much does a Crystal ball cost?

    Typically any morph with a "super" form is codominant. But I really don't know the genetics behind a crystal.

    Nice snakes by the way! I'm sure they are way out of my price range.

    Tom, those are absolutely STUNNING! Out of all the traits out there, these have got to be one of my favorites.

    Love the crystal. Love the super crystal too.
    I thought the crystal was it's own morph? Like the calico? Nothing "makes" it. It just is, or is not? Like spiders etc?
    Don't quote me, it's nearly midnight, brain dead here.
    I want one.

    Does anyone have information directly on this morph?
    It's very interesting.. and to me a wanna-be future investment someday!

    I'm picky sometimes, but this just strikes me as WOW.

    I like the regular crystal/pastel crystal better than the supers... Hope I dont offend anyone, but if I wanted a snake as light as a super crystal, I would just get a BEL (Lesser X Lesser). I really really like the pastel crystal ALOT though and I must have one :P

    Yeah, I like the crystal and pastel crystal better, honestly. The supers look too much like Blue-eyed lucys. Still fantastically beautiful snakes. :D

    Wow, that first one nearly knocked me right out of my seat. Would you take my husband as partial trade? :please:

    Beautiful snakes. How long has this morph been around? Will it ever make it to the mainstream market?

    Re: Updated Super Crystal and Crystal Photos...
    Thanks for your responses everyone!!!!!!:)
    I will try and answer all the questions....
    Crystals are a combo and produced by breeding a Mojave X "Special". I have not released any photos of the "Specials", and will not do so since people have invested in the project knowing this. I would assume at some point this year or next that one of these investors will either post a photo or put one up for sale.... They are not all that visually exciting though...
    I have also told a few people that have inquired with me, and are waiting, that Crystals will be between $5,000 and $7,500 depending on sex or how many are produced... The only problem is, outside of these Supers, I have not produced any Crystals at all (besides a Pastel Crystal twin that died in the egg).
    These Supers are "Super Special" Mojaves... I missed on the Super Mojave "Special" this year, although I assume it will clean up the Super Mojave leaving a pure white snake.
    My personal favorite is the Super Crystal out of them all... I would definitely sell the Super Crystal before I would the Pastel Super Crystal, but only due to the potential and not due to the looks! As far as picking favorites, you have to remember that all of the Crystals start out relatively white... I think we might be in for a good surprise once these Supers hit the 600 gram range... Then again, since there are no others, who knows!!!!!:weirdface
