Endlicheri Grades

[Bathi]

I believe your shop is going buy looks. Meaning which ones appear closer to the wild caught, therefore price may be slightly higher, i.e. markings, head shape, less frog eyes, potential CB type defects, etc...

Since, most Endlis are obtained at small sizes. Here are few examples out of many captive bred types. Some have very little patterns, or markings that are sideways rather than vertical. In short, ' Price (Beauty) lies in the eyes of the beholder '

Finally managed to got the pics from 3rd grade endlies..(owner told them as 3rd grade)..

CB is CB and wild is wild, now for grades only thing i know of that matters is platinum grading system. The shop your going to sounds like he just marketing to you. Not sure of where you live. There were breeders before I am sure that graded like Dory K or Kamihata but not sure anymore. Way i see it see one you like buy it.

Yeah especially with ljs and the tendancy to change colors with substrate colors. No way I'm buying into the grades thing.

Only grade thats matters is wild. Wild should always be the premium. Captive is cabtive regardless of pattern hard to beat the wild real deal.

True wild is real grade spare no expense

They are all endlis nothing special. Id imagine something like this happens - the seller gets 20 endlis 5 have really nice patterns - 5 have decent patterns - 10 are just blah.... they get graded as such. Meanwhile the kicker is they change soo much as they grow its tough to tell at these sizes what they are going to turn out like
