Hello everybody, Im working on getting some good Balls together so I can go strong my first year of breeding. As of now, I have A male spider, and two normal Females.

I found a guy on craigslist, whose trying to sell 2.1 50% Poss. Het Ghost Ball Python Hatchlings. The boys have shed but not the girl, and none have eaten yet. He's selling them for 20 dollers each, or 50 for all three.

I feel like I have a pretty decent chance of them having the ghost gene, and worst case scenario, I could always use the female to make more codoms, but Im trying to decide if theyre worth trying to prove out. I can spend $50, and If proved out each snake would double in value. And with a few years I could wind up with some consistantly producing ghosts, and possibly ghost spiders. Or this could completely flop, I have bad luck and none of the three prove out, landing me with a ton of normals that would be difficult to move, and greatly disappointing me because I sank years into a maybe. I would of course have other projects going to too, the het ghosts becoming somewhat of a background experiment. But my first year Im probably going to be scrambling to get an incubator the size I would need in time, and Im afraid to not be picky enough with the clutches I do produce.

What do you guys think? Possibly a good investment? Too flimsy to be worth my time?
