    I agree there is a lack of adult pics of this morph. So there really isn't any way to compare how it ages without pics.

    Only one year and it's lost a lot of it's color, they tend to get lighter and lighter every year. There is a reason that NERD called their founder import male 'whitesmoke'

    Thanks for the kind words to everyone who had them!

    If you're only going to keep bps that look as good or better as adults than they do babies, then your list of options is going to be pretty small. The unfortunate fact is that most of our morphs and combos don't age particularly well. Knowing I can make beautiful babies makes me want to keep pairing up my homely adults. Actually, I find that I enjoy my adults as much as the babies. They aren't nearly as colorful in most cases, but I still like them just the same.

    Coral Glow Babies

    I think that people need to remember that aging is apart of life. And that people aren't going to look like their 20 when they are 80 years old lol. Even though it's something we don't like, it's something that is an inevitability. So everyone should just get used to it

    I agree here.....Babies are almost always brighter and more colorful than adults. I think the 1100g adult male aged well so far. And those Banana Spiders CFC posted are amazing. I agree that some banana combos look terrible but so do other combos that don't have banana.

    The list of bp morphs that don't change much from babies to adults (or don't look as good even with some change) is going to be an extremely short one, even with the vast array of morphs we have available. That's like saying you're not going to buy a brand new camaro because as soon as you drive it off of the lot that it will drop in price, as if almost every other car doesn't also. As for adult banana/cg's though as adults, I think a lot of them look incredible as adults. You don't like them, don't buy one, there will be a few in my near future though and I don't doubt when they drop to pet price, they'll be one of the fastest selling animals at shows that there are.
