I'm currently looking into purchasing a mystic potion, and the breeder has two that I'm interested in. However, I'm not sure how MPs colors change/develop, as I haven't really seen too many adults (outside of one lovely specimen that I've seen posted around these forums) I'd prefer one that has more of a dark grey/purplish hue, at least on the head and neck. But I know it can even vary among individuals.
Between the two I'm looking at, the male is much darker overall, with high contrast, and the dark colors seem to "leak" down from the top, while the female is more of an overall silvery gray with a dark head. I have pictures of both.
I guess what I'm asking is, what do you look for in a quality MP, and will a darker color in a juvenile fade into a gray/purple? I guess I'm just not sure how their color development works, as I've seen some that hold pattern and hues well, and some that completely gray out.
