    All comes down to selective breeding. If you breed the brightest hets, you will get brighter whites in your axanthic. also Fire is a good choice to breed into axanthic since they naturally get brighter as they age

    I would suggest to find one that you like, and don't look at the line. For example, My fiancé and I always wanted a sugar rather than a calico, because we thought the sugars were better looking overall than the calicos. We went to Tinley in March and found a gorgeous pastel calico male, and had to have him. We weren't looking for a calico, and ended up taking one home. So, find an axanthic snake that you like. I think the VPI like is more popular, but may not be exactly what you are looking for.
    The collection is growing:
    1.0 Dumerils Boa (Khardeen), 0.1 Spider Ball Python (Charlotte), 0.1 Pastel Ball Python (Serenity), 1.1 Mojave Ball Python (Atreyu, Starr), 1.0 Black Pastel Ball python (Vader), 0.1 Enchi Champagne Ball Python (Monroe), 1.0 Enchi Ball Python (Apollo), 1.0 Citrus pastel yellowbelly ball python (Mellow Yellow), 1.1 Fire ball pythons (Fuego, Pele), 0.1 Pinstripe ball python (Vera), 1.0 Pastel Calico ball python (Monty the python), 1.0 X-Gene ball python (Wesley), 0.1 Butter X-Gene ball python (Buttercup), 0.1 Bumble Bee ball python (Honeycomb), 1.1 Red Blood Pythons (Armond, Mina), 1.1 Matrix Red Blood Python (no name, Trinity), 0.1 Splotched Sinaloan Milksnake (Lilith), 1.0 Albino Honduran Milksnake (Boros), 1.0 Desert Kingsnake (Crowley- King of Hell), 0.1 Banded Albino Kingsnake (Rhapsody)

    I've seen great and poor examples of both VPI and TSK line axanthics.

    When it comes to axanthics, my choice will be black axanthics. They ROCK!
    Lots of BPs, and still not enough!

    As far as investment VPI is the way to go, they look better and people tend to prefer them over TSK , which is something to consider if you plan on breeding and want to move your stock.
