Thanks folks - you've given me some great input!

I think that people generally think that both specimens looks gorgeous and a are pride to have in a collection. But if you're interested in creating breathtaking ball pythons then the Calico (Bubblegum) is the slighty better way to go. Is this presumption right?

They are both from 2009. The Ivory looks like great like any other of its fellow
Ivories. The Bubblegum will probably gain very high-white sides as she matures - she has a very large amount of pink on her sides. And she's a ringer too.

I'll let you folks and other folks know what the outcome of my decision is on
this Thursday.
