Well, I realize that best and cheap rarely go together with anything. lol I was just trying to narrow down how bright/light colored of an animal I could reasonably get for under $400 that would likely maintain its color. I have seen some nice pastels of friends that I see a few years later and they have gotten noticeably darker. I was trying to avoid that as I already have a nice normal. Can't afford the best, so I need the best that I can afford!
