Would you buy this Mojave?
My friend and I are new to purchasing BP morphs. I'd like some feedback about this girl we were thinking of buying. She's a little dark for a Mojave, but the pattern is right, to me. Are there any other Mojave owners who have observed individual color variance among this morph? I've held one in person, close to the same age as this, and I remember the snake being brighter... could it just be low lighting? I'd be grateful if anyone had some pics in either different or similar lighting to compare. Thanks for any helpful feedback! It's really appreciated!

Personally I prefer dark mojaves. The darker the better. I would possibly buy her. Her pattern is nice, love the darkness, and she has pretty decent blushing up her sides (from what I can see) I like floating pattern, and it's hard to tell from that pic if hers are or not.

To add to my post...she is a little low on contrast, but depending on my project her darkness might be more important.

I would pass. That mojave isn't very high quality. I have a dark mojave, but her yellow alien heads glow. That mojave has no contrast.

Thanks a lot, guys! I will talk to my friend about this, because she was pretty excited about it but something made me go "ummmmmmm..." and I wasn't sure if it was just me or not, since I don't spend a lot of time around this morph in person. Yes, contrast is the word, it really looks like it's missing here, especially in the dorsal markings. Color wise, this snake doesn't make me think of a Mojave. Guess I'll ask the breeder to take another picture or two in some different lighting before we make an ultimate decision, but I'm going to suggest my friend pass.
Just for the sake of being hopeful and optimistic... do you think she's a fluke and her offspring might "clean up" this bloodline, or would that be too much to gamble on? Meh, knowing my friend, she'll buy this girl just to give her a home, nobody will be lying to themselves that she's ugly at least, LOL.
