Underrated morphs?
Which morphs do you consider to be underrated? Which ones aren't being utilized to their full potential?
IMO the fire and the spotnose are the top two underrated/ under utilized morphs out there.
What do you all think?? Also if you have pics of awesome combos including the morphs you consider to be underrated/underutilized, please share them!!

Re: Underrated morphs?
Before even reading your post two that popped into my head was the fire and spotnose.....lol

Re: Underrated morphs?
My new project that I just discovered http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/super-pewter/
Look at pictures 2-4... my god. Why have I not seen this before yesterday?

I love what a nice yellowbelly does to anything. I don't even like white snakes much but the subtle things really set it off for me. I also like the granite specks on a lot of different morphs. Both of these aren't utilized a ton but I think as the markets develop you will start to see it necessary to include subtle morphs to set your animals apart from the rest. I plan on adding a yellowbelly within the next few months. Granite is going to be important for me but I need to pickup my Sugar and another double gene male before I will grab a granite. Fire's have taken off like crazy but you still don't see enough. I think I might get an Enchi Fire for my next double gene male.

Genetic banded (AKA, the "other" tiger) -- I think they're gorgeous on their own, and I don't think I've seen them crossed with much of anything.
Also, vanilla, though I think they may be coming into their own with the fire-vanilla cross stuff.
I haven't seen much spotnose stuff that has really blown me away yet, with the possible exception of the calico-spotnose ... The thing I wonder, though, is whether those will be consistently awesome, or just sometimes-awesome. I feel like from what I've seen, a lot of calico combos are hit or miss as far as the awesome factor (wide variation between different individuals of the same calico combo).
Come to think of it, I think calico may be a bit underrated as well ...

I was just about to post Vanilla. It skipped my mind earlier when I posted I love some of the vanilla stuff when it is crossed. The fact that they get lighter with age really helps accentuate many other morph combos.

Re: Underrated morphs?
Great question. I was tempted to say Fire and Vanilla, but then after giving it some thought, I'm going to say Fire, Enchi, and Woma. The reason is that each look cool on their own and make cool supers as well as combos. The hidden gene woma alone makes it highly underrated. I think the woma and genetic banded animals get lost behind spiders as the spider really is a dominant version of a banded-type snake.
Enchi's are awesome and I think will be in a lot of the awesome combos in the next few years. The enchi fire, enchi desert, enchi pastel, and the super enchi are just so super cool.
As far as pulling back on the vanilla, the reason I did is because while they make an awesome super, by themselves, they look like a normal to me.

I think a morph that nobody thinks of that much is the sable.

I don't understand how people say fire is under rated, its everywhere and high in demand. Hardly fits what I would call under rated.
Enchi demand is starting to go up, before kevin's announcement that enchi helps the pied gene it was undoubtedly an underrated morph, but now its a must have for pied projects and everyone loves pieds. Outside of the pied project it has so much to offer also.
The reason no one thinks much of sable is because well.... look at it. its a pretty sad excuse for a IMG. Even the super doesn't do much. Sean kept calling his sable enchi his 2000 dollar normal lol.
I say one of the most underrated morphs is congo, makes pastels super clean, who knows what its potential could be with other morphs.
