Paradox Ivory.. Hold it back?
I produced a paradox ivory late last year. I am debating on holding her back or selling/trading her and holding a regular ivory back. Has anybody here produced a paradox and held it?
Also, I am trying to post the pic but it keeps asking for a link..?.

It is really up to you. Paradox in Ball Pythons does not seem to be genetic, so I would not hold it back in hopes of making another one.
If you choose to sell it, a Paradox can go for more money depending on how extreme it is.

Paradox Ivories are quite common.

Yep. I will likely never produce a paradox again. That's why its kinda hard to part with..
It guess it does make sense to sell it and just hold a regular ivory back.

It boils down to what you want in your collection. I personally like animals that are a little different, so I would hold back the paradox and sell the other.

Re: Paradox Ivory.. Hold it back?
I think paradox stuff is neat, but it depends on what you like. Genetic wise though it probably isn't any different. Sand boas are the only snake I know of where paradox is an inheritable trait.

generally its a random thing. but now there also is a recessive morph that does it. atomic completely covers the whole BP with lots of paradoxes.

its still a very rare and very expensive morph, and the basic version doesnt look impressive, you need to add a few morphs, and then you see the different morphs being expressed in different places.
but i agree, if its just an ivory, you can be quite certain that its a random thing and not genetic.
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.

I'd definitely hold back the female paradox Ivory if I were you

I will also hold back the paradox one and sell the other since you can just get few more dollars since it s just an ivory ...

I saw an ad on Craigslist in a city near me. Someone had a 2013 female paradox ivory, so I figured I would see how much they wanted. They wanted $1800. I know the are different, but like Jinx said, it isn't genetic. I could see him asking a few hundred more, but $1800 was a little ridiculous.
Personally, I LOVE paradox stuff, especially paradox ivories
