    Have Room for One More...

    Hey everyone, so I'm figuring out a few things with my snakes, and I realized I have room for one more BP right now . In the future I really want to produce Ivory Spiders. Currently for this project I have a juvenile male YB and a juvenile female Spider. I'd like to add another juvenile or yearling female for this project. Either a female YB or another Spider. I think on one hand if I get another Spider it doubles my chances of producing a YB Spider, but then I think if I got a YB I can produce an Ivory then breed him/her with a spider and have very good odds of getting a YB Spider(it would just take a longer time)... What do you all think I should go with?
    Thanks

    Sounds like you need to build/buy more places for balls. You have two and have the bug already. I would go YB.

    Get a YB female! You'll save 2 years on your project.

    Breed your male YB to your female Spider, hopefully get a male YB Spider. Breed him to your now breedable YB female. Potential Spider Ivories.

    But if you get a Spider female, you will have better odds at getting a YB Spider, but then you have to holdback one of your female YB babies anyway and grow her up before being able to shoot for the Ivory Spider.

    But either way let us know what you choose! An Ivory Spider is an awesome goal to shoot for.
