    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:

    Seller said it should not get as many dark spots from her experience...

    And this one still.

    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.
