What to breed to a normal?
So I just found out that the first snake I ever got is a female. Normal of course .
I want to get into breeding, and as some of you guys might know, I purchased a bunch of females that I plan on breeding, but they're all babies right now. I like buying babies instead of adults . It's cheaper and I get to see a glimpse of what my offspring could look like .
My question is, what would you breed to this normal? My current baby females are Calico, Enchi, Killerbee, and Pastel het clown. I really dig enchis and I think there's still so much to be done with both enchis AND calicos... Whatever the male will be, I'm hoping to get either a double co-dom male, or a male of either enchi or calico to hopefully produce more females (since you can never have too many )
What do you guys think? What would you do? Do you have a better idea?
Thanks =].
EDIT: I forgot to mention o_O.. She's only 1300 grams, but she's an 08. I know some of you guys have older females that are around the same weight, but her small size is my fault. She wouldn't eat for so long when I first got her and I had no idea why... Then I found this forum and discovered that her 40 gallon fishtank wasn't the best idea ... Then I found out she had retained eye caps (which the forum helped me discover)... Then I was feeding her prey items that just weren't big enough.. Hoppers for a long time... Then finally adult mice for a longer time... So I made a ton of mistakes before finally getting her on track eating small/medium rats once every 7 days, and she's my favorite feeder  !!

Depending on how much you want to spend I would go with an Enchi combo male. Enchi Pastel, Enchi Spider(Stingerbee) or Hypo Enchi.

Either a Super form of something, so you don't get any normals. Or A high end male and hope to reproduce him.

I dont really want to only get a certain morph :p. i think pastel enchi really fits my plans even if i dont get a pastel enchi, I'd be happy with enchis!
Just being able to successfully breed and hatch out cute tiny ball pythons would be awesome!!! THATS the holy grail to me in this hobby

Re: What to breed to a normal?
According to my preferences, I'd go along the lines of granite yellowbelly, granite fire, gargoyle/onyx, or a hypo combo.
