    What Is A Better Choice?

    Hi everyone i have a dilemma i was going to get an 09 clown but then some one said they will give me and 1500 gram female mojave for about 500 bucks but for me it does not matter how much they cost. so lets just say if they both cost the same which one would be a better investment i really like the clown but i with the mojave i know i can make many thing with her so please help me out cause i can only get one of them.
    p.s the pic is the clown ill get the pic of the mojave later

    Hi,

    I would think about what I want to breed in the future, and base my decision on this!
    But if it doesn't matter what they cost, take both
    And in this case, although the mojave seems to be a good investment, I would take the clown, its just an awesome looking guy.
    best regards, Timo

    It's not every day 1500 gram mojo females are let go and especially at that price, and although that is a particularly hot male clown, they are released with some regularity.
    I'd pick up the female.

    Re: What Is A Better Choice?

    Depends on what you like- I don't like clowns, but if you like them get them. I also think that I'd rather get a visual recessive female first, that way when she is a year or two old you can pick up a visual or het male. Either way to produce more clowns you are gonna need at least het. clown females.

    Imo adult morph females (especially recessive morphs) are worth their weight in gold, they put you much closer to producing lots of morph combos

    Re: What Is A Better Choice?

    i dont know the first thing about breeding but i'll add my 2 cents here. theres alot you can do with females. theres also alot you can do with a mojave. but ultimately it is your decision. do what you feel is best for your breeding puposes.

    1.0 better half
    0.1 mojave ball python (Nyx)
    0.1 Dumerils Boa (Hemera)

    3.4.? rats (? = litter coming any day now)
    0.1 dutch rabbit (Lucy)

    Re: What Is A Better Choice?

    I think the mojave is the better choice if you think about breeding her. Unless you have something to go with the clown like even a simple pastel you could go that way, but even with a normal and mojave you can get both in the clutch with out needing another het clown ect ect.

    I -love- clowns though and I myself would buy the clown before the other morph. Especially that nice looking one being offered there! It's really your call, but if you're talking breeding I'd have to say female mojave!

    Re: What Is A Better Choice?

    I have a 1300 gram female mojave in my collection. If someone were to offer me that clown straight up for her, I wouldn't do it...

    Yeah, matter of a person's own personal preference for sure. I am rather rusty and didn't plan to get a mojave myself, but could you tell me what all you could breed out using a mojave? Mainly just the cooler high up morphs plz
