    Trying to decide what to breed

    I want to buy a couple more snakes and breed them. I am trying to decide what to breed and sell. Any Ideas?

    Some hot morphs right now are:
    Bumble Bees --- Pastel x Spider
    Black Eyed Leucistics ---- Fire x Fire
    Ivories ---- Yellow Belly x Yellow Belly
    Piebalds ---- Has to be bought, or bought by het.

    Look for combos you like.
    I have a plan to get a lemon blast male, black pastel female, and a pastel female.

    Even if the 2 females I get are not ready to breed for a year or two I have a 1800+ gram normal female I could breed to help make a few extra bucks.

    So in my first year I can make normals, pastels, pinstripes, and more blasts at least. If the other females go I can also make super pastels, super pastel pins (super blasts), black pastel pins (black pins), pastel black pastel pins (black pewter blast), and pastel black pastels (black pewters) So with those 3 morphs I have a goldmine of possibilities
    Turn around and sell/trade them and I'll have more $ to further projects.
    After I get these 3 snakes I have an idea of the other morphs I'd like to add to the collection. Like a fire, maybe some recessive (pied or ghost), enchi, and a few others.

    In all look at morphs YOU like and go from there.

    It helps if you could tell us what's your budget, but for a start I will recommend to get some co-dom females.

    I'm hoping this year to make calicos, bumble bees, super pastels, ghosts, pieds, and lessers now and I'm hoping by next year I will have a lot more combos to work with. Its funny but I can't wait to make some pastel yellow bellies, really like the look of them.
