I heard only the 1st few pieces were high quality. I believe quality went down afterwards and they stopped breeding them. Not too sure.

What i noticed from a wc pbb is the head shape, more square and pretty bulky with small eyes, like i said earlier i havent seen a big cb pbb so i dont have something to compare it with.

Just a ex. Of a nice WC koliba vs. CB koliba. A WC koliba will have a pointier snout, And flat head vs. a cb koliba which most have round snout and fatter head.

Another ex. A Wc nigerian lap vs. a cb lap. Wc nigerian lap will have bulky head, flat head and square snout vs. a cb lap which will have the same as the cb koliba.

Im not sayin that the cb pbb will have this characteristics but it might if its a cross breed with a lap, we dont have the source where it came from. Like i said i might be wrong, im new to this cb pbb.

Of course we all know there are differences with cb vs wc but if there were 0 WC endli available to you wouldnt you settle for CB ? Same situation with this cb pbb thing, gotta go for the next best thing.

I would settle with a cb lap or endli why not, i started from a cb and still owe two. I like said earlier i might eat my word if this cb pbb turns out to be a stunner, i might end up buying two, ive seen alot of cb endli and how they turn out to be nice thats why i didnt mind buying some, but idk how will a cb pbb will turn out and paying $100+shipping, i rather spend it for a WC lap for now:)

Yeah if monster size, high cost, and poor availability weren't an issue it would be wc all day. These guys will be fun to grow out though, being relatively new to the cb poly scene they may have less of the traits purists can't stand since they're most likely not dozens of generations inbred. Hybrid or not, they do exhibit all of the defining traits of the genuine article, so only time will tell what they look like as big guys

Also have to keep in mind that not all WC PBB look the same. patterns vary A LOT and so do head shape.

Some have very spoonhead shape like a shoe horn, some have flat top head with square jaw, some have bullet head shape, some have slightly protruding eyes above the head, others don't.

From looking at the wet spot pics, I spot similar variation in the head shape of the baby cb pbb.

Things could get really interesting if mine shows up tomorrow with a different head shape than Zilch's.
