    Please help, new bp, BEL v White wedding COLOR

    Hello,

    I have a few bps, my favorite a white wedding spied girl (Black eyes). I’d really like to get another white snake but this time a BEL. I’ve researched around the web, YouTube, and some old posts but no one has ever has experienced a comparison of a super lesser BEL (which I think is the most stark white of the BELs - please correct me if I’m wrong) and a white wedding spied.


    I was was wondering if any aficionados or breeders have seen comparisons of the two and if the BEL can never compare to the stark white of a WW when the bo reaches adulthood.

    I have the option of purchasing another WW (from the same clutch as my girl). If the BEL can’t compare then I’ll bring him home.

    And no I do not plan to breed, I just love loving bps.
    Thank you for the help!

    I do not have any Pied animals but I have a SuperFire, a Hypo Lesser/Mojave and I had an Ivory Butter OD Pastel so I know a bit about white snakes. I have also visited a number of friend's collections and seen adults of a bunch of things.

    The most stark white snakes I have seen are the all-white BlkELs. The white I have seen on adult high-percentage Pied animals is the same degree of stark white so I would believe that an all-white Pied combo would be equal in that regard.

    Every BluEL adult I have seen has had some faint level of pigmentation to them, they are more cream-coloured than white. I have also yet to see an adult BluEL of any type that does not have some kind of faintly visible dorsal stripe

    i agree w/ Dr. Ash. an all white BlackEL like a patternless Super Fire will be brighter and whiter than white BlueEL's. also i have an adult Lied (Lesser Pied) who has stayed all white since i got her as a hatchling. the whites in Pieds stay white and vibrant but sometimes they do develop a black freckle here and there butt i haven't seen that on all white Pieds yet.
    RIP Mamba

    beLI am agree with answers. If you are lloking for a full white nothing is more white than the one in a piebald. I would say go for a BEL anyways there are gorgeous. I have a bamboo.mojave BEL and a pied and its just a different taste having both. Those blue eyes have no comparison.
