    Banana Options

    Ok so we all know that the banana looks amazing as a baby but looks kind of ugly as an adult. The pattern is too bright/light, washed out look and has black dots every where, So basically as it gets older it lightens up (which is the ultimate bp for anyone).

    My Theory is that if you cross a banana with a black pastel, cinny, sable, chocolate, and even a axanthic cross that when it ages it might not look so bad as an adult. I hope people fortunate to have bananas are trying to cross them with darker BP's to see what comes out.

    If anyone has other opinions please share

    I actually like that adult Banana. A Banana Lesser sounds nice as well, though!

    I like the adult alot better than the youngster, actually. XP

    A banana lesser...that'd be awesome.

    dub it a hackneyed, faux demeanor; you'll ultimately stand corrected.

    What exactly is it you want to fix? You want to darken it?

    Bananas don't do it for me. Candies and Lavender Albino Crosses, that's where it's at!

    The adult Banana is Amazing! lol Nothing got washed out.. In fact, it just got even more contrasted! And the black peppering is a really beautiful touch.. Its not like most snakes with black spot that are brownish/blackish/greyish.. They are dark solid black spots...
