Making a BEL.

[ShawarmaPoutine]

Hello y'all. From what you have bred, seen, heard or learnt, what is the best pairing to produce a Blue Eyed Leucistic noodle. What combo makes the healthiest, whitest (not pinkish nor greyish) blue-eyed snakes?

Mojave x lesser makes very white snakes that usually don't have eye issues.

What would be next to pair with a butter female? cuz that's what I have lol. Also, I love the Lesser gene way more than butter. Have we reached a consensus if they're the same thing? (like CG & Banana)

Lesser and butter are the same just a different line, I don't recommend lesser x butter unless you like bug eye snake no one will buy.

Whether you have a butter or a lesser I would highly recommend a mojave to prevent that.

Thanks Deborah, that's exactly the kind of advice I was looking for. would you say that only Mojave x Mojave will make will give a BEL a grayish tone?

Yes Super Mojave do make a BEL however they have a very dirty head if you make a Hypo Super Mojave the head is less dirty but it's still not a pure white snake so Mojave x Lesser or Mojave Butter will be your best option unless of course you want to go with Super Russo but Russo on their own are not that great of a mutation compare to Lesser or Mojave.

Thoughts about breeding a super mojave (BEL) x Butter and therefore increasing the normal of BELs in the clutch (50% of clutch)? I am gonna assume that a super Mojave BEL will be cheaper because of the "dirty head" compared to any other BELs.

Super Mojave’s cost more than a mojave. And one of them are to expensive to buy something u don’t really like to begin with. Also if breeding I’d not worry about the price as much as getting a great quality snake. U get out what u put in. Cheap out and u will not have the top of the line looking snakes.

I know quality of the pairs is important. How important though? Does it determine what the offspring look like 50% of the time? 70%?

Deborah, does butter x butter also make BELs with bug eyes?
