I was cleaning cages today, and was thinking about how I used to think the Spider morph and the Pinstripe morph were, well, boring. There didn't seem to be much to them... a little bit of a different pattern, maybe some lighter or darker shades of brown here and there, but nothing noteworthy or eye-catching.

After purchasing my spider and my pinstripe, however---and only because I had plans to use them to create other morphs---these two base morphs have quickly become a couple of my faves. I simply cannot get over the golden color of my spider girl, nor the deep, rich chocolately carmel colors of the pinstripe.

It's just funny how opinions can change, I guess, when you see something for yourself instead of just in pictures. Made me realize that no morph is everyday, nor average!

I was wondering if anyone else has had this happen to them? Have you ever purchased a morph thinking, "Eh, it's all right, I can use it to make something better." And then found that the base morph was excellent all on it's own? If so, which morph?
