What makes a good morph?

[devonascended]

Okay this might be a weird thread, but I am new to Balls (and Morphs) and I was wondering what makes a good morph? I mean, ive looked at World of Ball Pythons, and the Morph Galleries here too, and im still left wondering what traits make any particular snake a "Good Representation" of its morph? On any site I have found there is usually a good photo library, and I can now pick out which morphs which (sometimes) but is there a place that describes morphs (preferably through text) illustrating their preferred qualities? Especially the subtle ones! I just cant wrap my head around it. Does something like that exist? What makes one butter a "better butter"? Anything that lists colour, pattern, configuration, whatever on a variety of morphs would be appreciated!

This is one of those personal prefernce kind of situation. Every one seems to like a different aspect of the same mutations. In the case of say a spider, i myself prefer a minimal amount of reduction of pattern with long sprawling strips coming from the back strip. Another person may prefer a super reduced pattern with a reduced coloration to the pattern as a "optimal" representation of the morph. Same thing with pieds, some like high whites some like low whites.

You will likely get a very diverse range of opinions on this question. My best advice for you is to study the morphs you like and form your own opinion of what looks best. Some will agree, some will disagree. As long as you are happy with your animal and happy with its offspring(if you decide to breed) then thats all that really matters.
