The way I look at it is this:Originally Posted by purplemuffin
I'm just thinking about some of our morphs like sable, spotnose, even vanilla.. I have seen normals darker than sables, lighter than vanillas, and with some weird freaky patterns, weirder than what spotnose ball pythons have!
I can't imagine what a gamble it was to breed animals like those and hope for a morph! And now they are used in a lot of morphs! We have a LOT of proven morphs which really look just like pretty normals, so someone out there is hoping to have the next big thing that ends up making a ridiculously fabulous animal they can sell for a lot of money and get known for!
I can imagine it would be exciting, and for those who are willing to gamble with the money.. good luck to them!
If I have a dinker male, I breed it to a normal female to try to prove it.
If I get a dinker female, I breed it to a morph.
Look what happened when someone was like "Oh, this female looks neat...let's breed a mojave to it" and POW...Crystal.
Or "this one looks interesting...I'll breed it to a yellowbelly" and pow...super stripes.
One dude even proved his OWN line of Crystals AFTER the originals just from dinking. (Lucky SOB)
So yeah...dinkers can be fun.
