It seems irresponsible to assume that just because 2 were born healthy that they are now good to be sold.
I'm sure Mike is not completely ignorant about this and a risk he is willing to take. You could apply that same mind set to any morph though. Cutting edge projects have their risks.

I don't think either of the fully scaleless have been sold. It's a 1.1 pair from what I've heard. And I don't think the scaleless heads are being sold to just any Tom, :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r:, or Harry...the current pricetag is just too prohibitive for that.
1.0 Het Albino Ball Python (Oberon)
1.0 Lesser Ball Python (Whiskeyjack)

0.1 Mex Mex Kingsnake (Ember)

It's irresponsible to assume they've already been sold.

You're also talking about a man who bought into Banana's early on and made a couple million off of them. So, if he spent a hundred grand and loses, it's not that bad for him.

thats what i dont like about bad word filters or lists of words you may not say. they never give you the actual list!
that aside, if the fully scaleless does not work out, i guess the money can be recouped with just scaleless heads?

i don't think people will really see the scaleless heads appealing. people will just use them to make the full scaleless.
