    Which Calico Fire Should I Buy?

    Hello BP fam,

    We decided that a fire calico male would be just the kind of power we need to kick our clutches up a notch. I am posting two pictures (pictures belong to the respective breeders) of two which are similar in price. I am only interested in the quality here, and your opinions on that. How big they are and how quickly they can breed does not concern me as much as the quality I'm putting into my own animals. But, the fact that "B" is a hatchling might mean that its colors will look misleadingly brighter than "A." So, what do you think?

    A:


    B:
    1.0 Pastel 66% het pied (Kingston)
    1.0 Specter (Forge)
    1.0 Super Fire (Oberon)
    1.1 Pinstripe (Jasper, Jezebel)
    1.1 Lesser (Paris, Isabelle)
    1.1 Black Pastel het ghost (Titus, Drusilla)
    0.1 Bumblebee (Havana)
    0.1 Spider (Arachne)
    0.1 Albino (Corena)
    0.1 Mojave (Brighton)
    0.2 Normal (Jeshikah, Aurora)
    0.1 Het Ghost (Verity)
    0.1 Pastel Yellow Belly (Bagheera)
    0.1 ??? Firefly or Pastel Disco (Ditze Vonteaze)
    0.1 Lemonblast (Limona)
    0.1 Yellowbelly (Ghana)
    0.1 Pastel Orange Ghost (Varekai)
    1.0 Jungle Carpet (Dayah)
    1.0 Hognose (Pepper)
    1.0 Banana Albino Cal King (Anuk)
    0.1 Albino RTB (Spooky)

    I like B, cleaner pattern and it looks like it go a little bit of paradox going on.

    Also you're going for a male so age really isn't to much of a issue.

    0.1 Mojave h. Ghost
    0.1 Pastel

    They are photographed very differently and are different sizes, but I think B has the most potential.

    I'm on the "B" bandwagon as well. It looks like he is going to be higher white with all that pink up his sides. You really can't go wrong with either, though. They both have wicked patterns, good color, and cool paradoxes.

    They are both great looking examples,

    If you want the pleasure of growing the male out yourself, choose B.
    If you want to know for a fact that he will be ready to breed next season, choose A.

    There is no wrong choice with those two snakes.
