    So what morph should I get next?

    I've seen a ton of these threads so I figured I'd post one 'cause I'm wondering what morph to get next if I'm interested in breeding in the future. As of right now only one of my snakes is up to weight and it's an unknown sex normal.

    Here's what I've got:
    1.0.0 Bumblebee poss. het. axanthic
    0.1.0 het. axanthic
    0.1.0 albino
    0.0.1 normal

    I was thinking a pastel lesser to pair with the bumblebee? Try to make some killer queen bees. Maybe an axanthic to try to prove out the hets? I'm also interested in snow balls and/or albino spiders. What are your thoughts? You can pretend that moneys not an object or you can give me more reasonable suggestions. Anything will do. I'm curious about the options out there.

    I will get some axanthics or any morph het axanthics males. Looks like you like black and white animals like me.

    A spider male is pretty cheap, you could breed him to your albinow when she is ready, and if you get a male spider het albino then breed him to your albino female for albino spiders. Or to save a generation or two you can buy a spider het albino, but they are close to $1000 from what I have seen. Might as well get a pastel female for the bumble bee, you can make spiders, pastels, super pastels, bumble bees, and killer bees poss het axanthic! Lots of different genes from one breeding pair is always nice.

    Axanthic female for the bumblebee to try and prove him, what percentage is he 66% or 50% pos het?
    Spider het albino, pinstripe het albino, cinny het albino would all be good choices for the albino girl.

    This is what I would suggest..

    0.1 Axanthic - If your Bee male doesn't prove, you still get a chance to make a Bee 100% het Axanthic in the first generation and breed him back to mum for a chance at Bee Axanthics.

    1.0 CinnaBee - I am not the biggest fan of Albinos, but my favorite so far has been Cinnamon and Spider variations. So why not go for both with 1 male? Breed him to your Albino in hopes for a CinnaBee and breed him back to mum for Albinos, Cinnamon Albinos, Spider Albinos, and CinnaBee Albinos.

    I'd also add a couple hatchling morph females for the future.

    Good luck!

    If I got a female axanthic het. albino to try to and prove out the bumblebee would the snakes I made from that pairing be 50% het albino? Has anyone made a Spider Snow Ball?

    Also...what about lessers?
    I really love queenbees...are there any axanthic killer queen bees out there?

    I'm overly ambitious.

    I can't remember he was bought as a pet before I realized all the potential of ball pythons (and how much fun it is to contemplate all the combos). Based off the initial price tag I'd guess 66% but I honestly have no idea.

    Is that what you're showing off in your avatar? When I saw my first clown in person I was smitten.

    All offspring would be 100% het axanthic and 50% pos het albino whether morph or normal.
    Unless you get lucky and proved out the pos het and made an axthanic or axanthic combo.
    I'm not sure on the spider snow but it wouldn't surprise me it's been done.

    Showing off? I hope people don't think I'm showing off........ yes that is a spider clown in my avatar. Seriously, there are so many awesome morphs and combinations out there, you should really just work towards producing what you really like. It took several years of hard work and a lot of luck to produce him.

    I didn't mean "showing off" negatively. Sorry if it seemed that way. It's a lovely snake and you have every right to show it to everyone and be proud!
