You can build a rack inside your wardrobe you know. So long as you dont mind the doors being open all the time anyway but im a bloke and couldnt give a toss about that sort of thing.
I dont need cushions on my bed either. Or drapes. Or throws. or nice prints to go on the walls..

If you want to produce leucies i'd suggest a pair of fires, the odds are a bit more in your favour, not all mojave x mojave parings etc will produce a leucy. It depends on the original bloodline your mojave came from etc.

Fires are simply a visual het leucy and it's a proven line for producing leucies.

yep yep and yep

oh and tops... you know what i'd be tempted do do wtih your collection (ignoring you pied, going on your earlier mention of trying lesser x mojave)

i'd aim for lesser spiders...and then see if pastel and xanthic genes effect it in a similar way to normal spiders as sad as this sounds I was thinking about that combo the other night when I fell asleep.

already one step ahead of you on that one mate.
For some reason the pied has kind of slipped to the back of my plans.
Ive got my mind set on spider x albinos, lesser spiders (lovely) and seeing what an axanthic can throw into the mix. I often lie there thinking the same things
Did you mean axanthic (B&Ws) or xanthic (caramel albino)? some people use xanthic for both. I was talking about the black and white ones

The lesser x mojave will come along once ive got some spares to play with. If i want a leucy i will get some fireballs.

hmm x het x are far too expensive. Easier to make your own.
Im looking forward to breeding these two.
Its weird. They arent the most expensive snakes ive got but they do get me excited thinking about them especially now they are eating like machines. Seriously, they go through rats like The Terminator through a department store. (though the spider is a bit of a wimp at times)
Excuse his mouth. Hes just eaten. I was going for a yawn shot but he was too scared of the camera...
