Renick Mojave

[MS2]

Does anyone work with these/know what sets them apart from other Mojaves?

Looking on KS and saw one listed for some $$. Looked like a nice reduced pattern Mojave. Is that the difference or is there more to the "Renick Mojave"?

[MS2]

Wow, no replies. $1200 for a male may not be a deal....

I dont know anything about them, but I googled it and saw pics, they look like really nice reduced pattern Mojaves, but that to me does not justify 1200 dollars for a male.. there better be something else going on with them.. I have see others on here with nice reduced pattern mojaves like that.

Like myself. I hatched 2 Pastaves and 1 Mojave and they have a nice reduced pattern to them. I hope there's something else going on with them because I sold my male Mojave for the going rate.

I dont see anything wrong with that, going rate is fine, even maybe a little more for a nice quality animal like that, but 1200.. thats a bit much.

Direct from his website:

The Renick Mojave is the combination of a Renick and Mojave gene. These vary in pattern and color, these have a jagged back striping and washed out sides. This is from a "dinker" project of mine called the "Renick" gene, I am hoping to have a "Super" to this is 2012.

Ben can sell his animals for whatever he wants to. I think it's rather bold to be that critical. Instead of saying it BETTER have something else going on.

Exactly. There are a lot of breeders that charge premiums for some animals. They will either sell or not at that price.

I happen to think that critter is awesome - and I'd pay more than mojave market for it. But then, I generally buy the best examples of mutations that I can and am willing to pay for that privilege. I'm just happy to see that there are other breeder out there selectively breeding nice animals to nice animals to make mutations better. I also sell many of my production for more than market, because their quality is highly desired.

You are on a roll, lol, I also fully agree with this. I am more than willing to pay over market for an outstanding example. Garbage in is generally garbage out, and vice versa.

Now, HOW MUCH I would pay over market depends on the animal.

In this case, it at least look like Ben thinks something else is going on. I would have to know more about the project before putting down that kind of cash, but if you can get Mojos like that consistently, you would EASILY make your money back with a male in one season since you can charge at least 100-200 over standard (maybe more), and way more for the combos. A lot of folks do not consider this when looking at a price tag on a animal.
