Post a Pic: Lets see the best morph you own!

[Mike41793]

Then the year after that I'm putting her with my black pastel to make a super cinny!

Black pastel x cinny will give you a shot at 8 balls, not super cinny. Both parents have to have the cinnamon gene to produce a super.

I like your girl. She has a nice clean back. Could prove to be genetic, I really hope my girl's does.

My pewter female!

Anyway, I reckon I should now bow out of this thread. The first line in my post is that "Best" is very subjective, and I then posted my most expensive. But if folks want to get all upset about the second part of the post so be it.

I will never apologize for promoting quality in this hobby.

The overall point was that you should consider all of your animals to be the best, else why would you get them? If you have a snake that does not make you excited to open the tub, then why buy it?

That should answer the question of "why does an animal have to be the best example of that animal or you to buy it?".

If that is "daft" or "anal" or whatever, so be it. I know I am not the only one that feels this way.

The OP asked for the "best/most expensive" as well as favorite, so you guys can read in to that however you please, and I have done the same.

Boring and pointless? Seriously? You completely missed hiss point. Every single one of his snakes is his best pride and joy.

It's not a subject that those of us who spend countless hours, days, months looking for our "best" find boring or pointless.

What's boring and pointless is breeders who are lazy and sloppy and pick up poor quality examples of the morph they are adding just to save a few bucks and get into breeding with very little thought about the quality they produce and then wonder why their animals don't sell.

THATS boring and pointless. Especially when the deal they got when they post pictures is more important than the quality.

I'm not talking about people keeping their animals only as pets with no intention of breeding. Of course they may pick up "pet quality" the animals.

I find your comment extremely boring and pointless.... No, I really find it rather rude.

Both of you, still, have missed the point here. Pull your elitist heads out of you know where and understand that in this thread the topic is BEST YOU OWN. That can be most expensive, most potential, your favorite pattern, or your heaviest female.

It becomes boring and pointless when you guys get a soap box or put your robes on and preach. It's annoying, is that a better word for you?

Why is a "fun" thread becoming so hostile?!?

To get back on track, another one of my favorites...

This is my favorite girl

[Mike41793]

Just my opinion...

When I read the OP I thought "best" just meant your favorite in your collection.

Best doesn't necessarily mean highest quality here imo. A good example of what I mean would be this:
Jinx's flame is a good example of the morph, but I personally don't care for her. I like the fire girl I bought better. Am I saying jinx's flame is ugly or that my fire is "higher quality"? Not by any means. I'm just making the point that different people are going to have different tastes when it comes to certain morphs and what they like to see in them. They aren't really being elitist.

I think maybe "Favorite" might have been a better word for the thread subject. I took it to mean a light-hearted thread that gives people an excuse to show off pictures of their favorite snakes. Nothing wrong with that!

It also gives us a good opportunity to discuss the merits of choosing high quality animals for breeding purposes. That's nothing anyone should feel defensive about either.

Post up some great pictures, and have fun!!

Yep, I think you're right and I agree.
