I know I'm never going to make alot of money with my apple snail babies, but...

Would you agree that some colours are worth a bit more?

For example out of a clutch I have from my dark stripey purple and my light blue. I'm pretty sure I've got some light plain purples (pinkish ivorys) + ivorys...

Looking at the %'s, around 85% of babies are probably going to turn out like mum being purple with dark stripes and a dark foot.
This makes me think the genes for the ivory and plain purples are probably recessive and so a little bit rarer.

Again, let me stress, I'm not thinking I'm going to make my fortune in snails :shifty: lol.
But would it be fair to say that they are worth more?


Oh and would problems arise from breeding siblings? I'm totally in love with the plain purples and ivories. I was tempted to keep a few, but obviously they are directly related..
