    Which project has more legs? (final decision time)

    So I am making a final decision on what to pick up next, and since this will be the most I have spent on a single animal, I wanted some further pointed input.

    Before anyone says "get what you like", I like both projects equally, and they are within a few hundred bucks of each other.

    #1. I have a line on a 275g female Champ het Hypo that I could eventually put with my Hypo Mojo. Best case: Mojo Mimosas and Mimosas

    #2. I have a line on a 500g female Super Stripe that I could put with my Fire YB. Best case: Fire SS and Fire Ivories. This one is the more expensive of the 2.

    A male OD is also in the back of my head, but I could pick up a male later in the year. I would rather raise up the females, I think.

    So between the 2 projects listed above, what say you guys on which one has more legs for future development and which do you think will remain the most stable?

    I had to vote for the champ het hypo. The champ stuff is killer and looking at your collection down the road towards mojo mimosa enchis would be insane. I am going to be adding champ to my collection this year when all the hatchlings start popping up. Can't wait for the unboxing video whichever way you end up going.

    None of them have legs, they are ball pythons!

    I also vote the champ girl!
    Champagne projects are still relatively rare. Lots of new things to come out of them.

    Jinx, in my opinion, anything Champagne is going to be the next thing. And when I say next thing, I'm not talking about cutting edge stuff where there are only two examples in the world, and no one can afford them. I mean next thing like Pieds were once they fell below the $2000 price point.

    In the next few years, Champagnes and Champagne combos will be the morph everyone wants to add to their collections because it's a perfect combination of rare but attainable for the average hobbyist.

    And, honestly, for the next couple of years, anyone producing Champagnes will be able to sell them for premium prices to hobby breeders who'll be seeing some of the one-off high end combos that will be coming out, because they'll think they can do the same thing and will pay for the ingredients so they can try it themselves.

    If you are going to get serious about making anything with a stripe, you should shoot for Red Devils.

    Super Stripe!!!

    Most Champ combos are just varying shades of Patternless...Kind of a dead end and Pretty Boring IMO!!!

    Plus genetically speaking the Super Stripe brings so much more to the table...Who knows what other animals will pop up like the Puma and Highway stuff!

    X2.
    I, personally, feel the same way. In not really a fan of the Champs, not to say i wouldnt love one in my collection...I just think working with the SS would be much more visually(at least) rewarding.

    However, Slim brings a great point in his comment.

    I would have agreed with you before I saw the enchi champ, but now that we have the key to possibly unlock champagne potential, things could get VERY interesting .
