Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Color Question In BCI Morphs ?
I have mainly kept locale BCC and am very familiar with their color as they age. I am thinking of getting a nice, high end BCI morph. Not a hypo or albino. Looking at jungles and harlequins. Which would you recommend for good saddle and tail color with light background color potential with age? I thank you for your advice. Bill

Either a high quality Jungle or Harlequin should be a nice adult.
Any high quality one would be, the key is just finding one that is, in fact, high quality.
Junk bred to junk generally creates junk, regardless of what morph is involved.

Thanks for the reply. That makes a lot of good sense. Bill

Harli and Jungle, my two favorites!
I agree, high quality of either one should give you what you are looking for, even a really nice quality pastel will have the look you're wanting. In general, jungles may have a higher contrast with a lighter base creme color on top with the thick black borders around the tail saddles giving a good contrast. Harlequin lines may give a really great base color saturation (oranges and pinks all over) along with some neat patterns as well. So for contrast, I'd go jungle and for color, I'd go harli.
I'll try to get a shot of a jungle with a normal harlequin (most of the ones I kept are hypo harlis) to add to this thread. Although mine are nice, I wouldn't say they are 'the best of the best' but to try to illustrate the differences I'm mentioning.

haha nice!
I don't have any hypo jungles but I do have hypo harlis so I'll add them too. If I can't do it tonight, I should have time Saturday to get some pics for you.

I hope April doesn't mind, but in relation to what she mentioned about pastel animals ...
Any line selectively bred for color, with or without morph genes added into it can produce amazingly colorful animals. Here are a few examples of some European Pastel Hypos.
This is only one line I work with. Color is my self-appointed forte.
