Beef about some morphs

[Ophiuchus]

When one refers to the Woma ball they are referring to the morph not the hybrid. A Wall is a Wall a Woma is a Woma.

Okay, well Ive heard some folks simply use the word "woma" when they're actually referring to woma balls. Hence my confusion.


Ah well...I guess if I ever discover a new morph, I can name it whatever I want. Maybe I'll just call it a "green tree" ball python just for the heck of it.

This mojave really looks like a normal to you?

Now there's a nice mojave! *drool*

[Shelby]

I have to put a little plug in for my cinnamon too.. how many normal BPs have a neck stripe like this?

[LadyOhh]

Here is a question for you first and foremost:

Have you seen any of these animals in person???

[Ophiuchus]

Okay...I'll let the mojaves slide. Guess I was looking at some pretty ugly ones. And as I already said, they're apparently worth it if they produce ivories. BUT....if all they produced were just more mojaves, then I probably would not pay $400 for one. I guess thats my point. I understand now its what they can produce is what dictates the price, not necessarily what they look like. Shows how little I know about BP morphs.

Never seen a sable in person, but the others I have.

Mojaves produce Blue Eyed Leucies.

Yellowbellies produce Ivories

That would depend on the market you are. I would buy "pronto" a mojave for usd400.
In Spain they cost around €800-1000, that´s around USD1300-1600. And, believe me, they´re sold without problems.

Yellowbellies produce Ivories

Yes...I know that now. I was just saying that if that wasn't the case, and all yellowbellies produced were just yellowbellies, I probably wouldn't pay much more for them than I would a really pretty normal.

But yeah, JoMo made a good point about the market. But even then, it all boils down to what its worth to you personally and what your purposes are. Its only worth what you're willing to pay for it.
