    Quality snake?

    I am getting my first double gene snake a bumblebee this week. I know when breeding you usually want a high quality snake and some bumblebees brown out a lot. Here is my snake I'm getting (picture is by breeder).



    I am not sure if I want to breed someday but for now he is a new family member. I really like how thin his yellowing is on his back and how much white his belly has going up his sides which I was told is a good trait for breeding. Let me know your opinions!

    I think he looks pretty neat. I like how high white he is!

    Yellow looks very bright with no dark areas so he will probably keep his color well. I dig his high white sides already. I'd go for him as I just think his pattern, high white sides and bright yellows make him look unique.

    I recognize the pic, the breeder isn't all that far from me. I love the high white on the one you selected.

    Really? He was great to work with he answered all my questions quickly and was very helpful, his name was Jake Schupner. I would do business with him any day.

    Thanks everyone that's good because I am still learning how to tell apart quality morphs. I will post pictures as soon as I get him I'm very excited!

    Looks good to me! The white sides are really pretty. My Xavier is pretty high white, but not as much as that guy!

    for young bees and pastels and lemonblasts, you need to look for the boundary between the lighter yellow and the darker yellow, if it browns out it will do so above that boundary.

    and in this one, that boundary is quite close to the spine, the area where it could brown out is quite a narrow band on the dorsal. for bad examples, that boundary is halfway down the sides of the BP and most of the BP is covered with the darker yellow.

    so, yeah, very good, looks very promising.
    The Big Bang almost certainly (beyond reasonable doubt) happened 13.7 billion years ago. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Evolution is a fact, evolutionary theory explains why it happens and provides four different lines of evidence that coalesce to show that evolution is a fact. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    One third of the global economy relies on technology that is based on quantum mechanics, especially quantum electrodynamics (electron-photon or electron-electron interactions). If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Time Dilation is real, it is so real that all clocks if they are precise enough can measure it, and GPS could not possibly work without it.
    If you disagree, send me a PM.

    The 4 philosophically most important aspects of modern science are: Evolutionary theory, Cosmology, Quantum mechanics, and Einsteins theory of general relativity. Understand these to get a grip of reality.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"
