Thanks, I think so too.
DG being underrated is so true and I'm pretty sure I know why. Most people see DG babies and think, that's beautiful but it's so expensive and I can get a beautiful baby with some other lightening morph that looks similar and really pretty too but cheaper. The problem with that is when their cheaper morph baby grows up, unfortunately 99% are not near as bright and beautiful, they lose their contrast and some of the yellow and black combos even go brown instead of yellow. DGs biggest value in my opinion is that they look just as good as an adult as they did as a hatchling, their color and contrast stay amazing. I honestly don't think there is one other morph I can say that about, no doubt their are other beautiful adults out there but not just as beautiful as when they were hatchlings. I think as more DG combos grow to adulthood and more people realize how good they look as adults, it's popularity is going to continue to grow.

Really good choice on pairing. I think enchi and calico are a couple of the best complimentary morphs for bamboo. Good luck, I hope you hit a enchi calico bamboo, I'm sure it will be stunning!

Personally I find the Bamboo morph very appealing and I think there are some beautiful combos out there. So to any breeders or just ball python lovers: Is there any specific reason why Bamboos are not that liked? Is breeding difficult or are the combos just not special? Is the maybe that they're just not in demand?
I'd love to hear opinions.
I love bamboo morph. Is on my wish list.
