    I love snowflakes. And picassos! If the b/w is too much I'll do a pair of regular occ, as the first additions.

    They are fun as well, and not as aggressive as some other types of clowns. ;D

    Yes, I believe so. One of the main differences I use to tell the difference is the orange ring around the eyes. If the eye is all black, then ocellaris, if it has an oragne ring around it then percula.

    Ahh I've never heard that! I just always look at the colors. Usually perculas have more dark around the white parts. There darker in general.

    That may be, but there are a lot of different types of clowns now that are being bred for specific traits, so that may not be the best way to judge anymore.

    Very true. I love designer clowns. I read somewhere that the designer clowns are just oddballs with the weird genes and traits that were once called "undesirable".

    That was probably written by somebody that was jealous that they couldn't afford them lol. I paid $400 for one of my pairs. They will be bred for sure! :) They are a cross between a Picasso and a Snowflake.
