Which mystic?

[Parysa]

I have three female mystics I'm looking at and I'd like opinions on which one to go with. I want to get a male mojo and make potions. These are in no particular order and aren't mine.

Option 1, 2012 323g $600.


Option 2, 2012 poss het caramel, 540g, $650


Option 3, 2013 het ghost, just had first shed, $650


Im leaning toward the largest one. I like the pattern and fading on the first, but the second has the size and is a possible het. The third has really nice contrast, but seems really high as far as price for a baby that young.
What do you guys think? What are the pros and cons for each?

I would definitely get the last one if it's from a reputable breeder that you trust. Be patient and pair her up with your ghost boy in 2-3 years. The price definitely seems worth it for the guaranteed het hypo.

Wonder what a Hypo Super Mystic looks like.....

[Parysa]

The thing is I'm not crazy about the mystic ghosts. And I'm planning on breeding potions, so she wouldn't be available for him for four or five years. In that time I could get a het combo I do like. So the het hypo isn't really a plus for me.

Then go with number 2.

[Parysa]

Which one is the best example of a mystic and are the prices being asked fair for the snakes in question?

[Neal]

I'd say #2 or 3.

[decensored]

id go with 3

[Parysa]

Is the third one really higher quality enough to cost the same as a 500g and make it worth the extra year before she can breed? If I'm getting a much higher quality, then I'm ok with it, but if she's just going to fade out and look like the others, then it's not worth it.

[Parysa]

I need to put a deposit down on one of them today and this will be my first mystic, which is why I'm trying to get input from people who have experience with them.

I like the first ones pattern BUT she is kind of small for a 12 don't you guys think? Number 2 is an okay weight for the year (not the greatest) and has a nice pattern and price. Number 3 seems like the best option IF you want to make ghosts which you said you did not. I would go with 3 to keep ghost in my back pocket for later but if you are dead set on no ghost 2 is best option.
