    What makes a fire a fire?

    I've become very interested in this morph's potential and what it can create but I dont really know what to look for when I'm looking for one, so what are the tell tale markers of a fire...aka how do I tell a fire from a normal?

    The flame blushing on the bottom sides and the real clincher is the "pepper flake" look to it.

    If your looking for a fire my advise is to go to an expo and be patient. You will defiantly know a good fire from a normal. The blushing on some fires is unreal. Goto a show and be patient and be prepared to go home empty handed.

    I totally love this girl. Her first planned pairing is a yellow belly.

    Re: What makes a fire a fire?

    We will talk on Saturday. I have a friend who breeds fire's. If it were warmer I would bring them with me and let you see them. They are exceptional in my book.
    Too many snakes to list. Ball pythons, Gtp's and Boa's. It easier to say it that way.
