[domenicf]

Hello im new to the forum I decided id join to get some opinions . so I want to start breeding ball pythons im going to the white plains expo next week and im definitely getting two but im decding between a spider, mojave, pastel ,albino, pinstripe or maybe even a butter I dont want to get too crazywith the prices probally about 650 tops for the pair. I know spiders make some pretty cool morphs with most other morphs . But what are your suggestions thanks

I would get a Pastel female and a Mojave male

Welcome to the site.

Do you already have BP's or will these be your first?

I'd go for pinstripe and spider. You can do some pretty cool things with spinners!

Don't get a pair buy 2 females. I would go with a pinstripe and mojave.

This X2!
If you really do want to breed in the future getting 2 females now to start raising up is going to be your best bet.
As far as what morphs to get you really can't go wrong with any of the ones you have listed.
I personally would go with a Mojave and a Lesser/Butter.
