Re: Snake for the Fall
WEll, have you ever seen a leucistic Ball Python,
Constrictors Unlimited-Collection-Black Eyed Leucistic Ball Python
I'd never buy one though, for a third of the price of one leucistic you could buy 1 female, and 1 male fireball morph, build a ball python rack, and probaly have the money left over to feed them for 5 years.
Breed a male and a female fireball and you have a 25% chance of getting a leucistic.
granted, you may end up never getting one leucistic, but its rather unlikely over the course of the snakes lives you wouldnt get at least one, and if you got 2, selling one would completely pay off the initial investment.

Re: Snake for the Fall
That is crazy, I would think there would be more people breeding them. It is a ver cool looking snake.

Re: Snake for the Fall
well, a $5000 investment, still a good chunk of money.
Plus, as far as I know, it has'nt really been common knowledge until up about 2005.
One of the great things about the fireball morph is that breeding a fireball to a normal bp produces normals and fireballs, breeding a fireball to a fireball produces leucistics
and fireballs, no normal looking hets, the fireball is a visable het.
So, as long as you breed carefully, and introduce "new blood" down the road, with one fireball BP($2500-$3000) and one normal Bp($40-$80) in theory you could eventualy produce a Leucistic.
im sure with time the price on this snake will drop considerably.

Re: Snake for the Fall
Well, technicaly I think the super fireball, would be considered the Black eyed leucistic,
But a fireball would go for about $2500 for a male, and $3000 for a female.
