Well, as most of you know, I have recently adopted two neglected beardies. Long story short, I am ABSOLUTELY in love with them and I cannot wait until they are 100% healthy again. I have since fallen in love with bearded dragons, and because the pair I have adopted are both 4 yrs old, I have begun to wonder what it would be like to eventually adopt my OWN BABY and raise him/her from the start. 
I have been browsing many beardie breeder websites and I've been looking into all kinds of morph and color variations. I don't plan on getting one tomorrow or anything, but over the course of this year, I am toying with the idea of buying my own baby. So far, the morph that I am most obsessed over is the "hypo translucent" line. I think they are AMAZING! I would love to hear from you guys and find out what other morphs are really awesome. So, if you could have any beardie morph, which would you choose?
Here is a pic of the one I am obsessed over:

ALSO, if you have a pic of your fav morph and/or a good beardie breader, please share!

| I'm going with good ol' hypo pastel, here's a pic of a hypo pastel. (This is my beardie, Jack. Isn't she beautiful?) 
She also has red on her back and arms, and has a lot of gold on her back too, and some gold on her beard and mouth line. Like this:

Here's a red hybrid "Italian" leatherback Beardie:
I'm sure that they're expensive and rare, but how beautiful are they?
Just Google images.google.com and look for Beardies. http://www.kingsnake.com/ has a lot of animals for sale from breeders across the country and just research the breeder and talk to them. If you realllly want a Beardie who's different and you don't mind the cost, you are limitless in your choices. Even if you have to wait to save up for the beauty baby you want...isn't it worth it?

Those leatherbacks are pretty cool. Snow is also a cool morph. They have normal colored eyes but are totally white. LLLReptile has some. They also have leatherbacks, transluscents, and normals.

OMG!! They are soooo beautiful! Yeah, I definitely have to save up for a few months to get some extra cash to really buy any morph, and there's something about the translucents that just totally make me melt! LOL. But the one you shared is a beauty too!
As for breeders, what you said above IS what I'm doing... I was just wondering if anyone one HERE could give me a good word-of-mouth reference, ya know? Because everything is going to look good and sound good on a webpage. I just want to make sure the breeder is well-known and that they would only sell a healthy beardie, that the colors are as vivid in person as they are in a picture, that they are eating well, that someone interacts w/ them daily, ETC.... Because if I'm gonna spend some $$$$ on an "expensive designer morph" I want to know all of the above about that animal and breeder.
So, it will be a few months to maybe a year, simply because I need to SAVE up for it AND make sure the 2 I have rescued are entirely healthy. Thanks for sharing though!!!

Thanks! I'll have to check them out. I think I've heard of LLLReptile before, but I did not know they breed beardies.
Honestly, I'm sure you beardie is a total sweetheart and a gorgeous looking morph, I just can't really see too much..I think the picture is just too dark. I love pastels though, and hypo pastels?? Whoa, I bet she's smoking!
I just started reading into the morphs a few weeks ago, and the internet has really opened my eyes to just how many morphs are out there! Thanks for sharing!! I'd love to see another pic of Jack if you have any others!!

I like the sandfire and translucent morphs. But my beardie, Drake, also has some very nice coloring that I am fond of (he's having a bath as I type, btw)
