Looking to buy a female or 2 to breed my male giant raptor to. Love the orange and would like to produce some bright oranges. Heard enigmas bred with raptor make some great oranges with possible novas.
what r ur suggestions?
may get 2 so a couple ideas would be great.
What to get and what will it make?

Thanks all

Depends what you want. It would take at least 2 or 3 years to make a Nova from a RAPTOR x Enigma because of the hets. But yes, Novas are beautiful. It could be a nice project but most people would suggest starting with a Nova or an Enigma het RAPTOR to breed to a RAPTOR for faster results.

Depends on your budget. I would get either another Giant Raptor, Giant Sunglow, or a Giant Tremper Enigma het Raptor. All of these are not too pricey and by getting another Giant you will produce 25% Super Giants, 50% Giants, 25% normal rather than just 50% Giants. Really its up to you though. All you want to make sure of is to stay away from Bell and Rainwater albinos since your Raptor is Tremper albino. Since you want to produce a more "orange" coloration I would say to go with a Giant Sunglow. For a little more money you can get a Super Giant Tangerine Raptor or a Giant Nova and get some nice results. If you have tons of money to blow I would say try to pry a White and yellow het Raptor off a breeder but thats going a little overboard. Probably cost you $1-$2k. Good luck and post the outcome.
