Should I go for the all BEL or should i get something like bumblebee, lesser bee, pastel enchi, etc....Im just interested in everyones opinion so let me know.

    hmm, so you have a lesser and mojave female, both now one year old....

    pinstripe with those ladies would throw some nice ones
    umm, i see what you mean, but no.

    i say get a 2-gene male. pewter or bee or lemonblast. depends on what you like.

    get a single-gene male and you can expect clutches of 25% normals, 50% single-gene morphs, and 25% two-gene combos. 1 gene per snake on average.

    get a double-gene male and you can expect clutches of 12,5% normals, 25% single-gene morphs, 25% two-gene combos, 12,5% triple gene combos. 1,5 genes per snake on average.

    yeah pinstripe would work nicely with what you have, but then you could consider a lemonblast. or enchi pinstripe would be awesome. it really depends on what you like and where you want to go. You could get a pastave, then you get high-white BELs in the form of lesser mojave, and super mojaves which are grey-headed BELs, more pastaves, lesser pastels, ...

    i like BELs and jigsaws (pinstripe mojave) so i would try to get a jigsaw, for BELs and more jigsaws and i would later add enchi, pastel, fire, etc.

    and mojave or some other BEL gene would, i think, be better than to have lesser or butter in the male, because of the eye problems that sometimes happen in super lesser / super butter / lesser butter.

    If you find that you have 3-gene options within your price range for that male, thats always something to consider, i guess the cheapest triple hit is the killerbee (super pastel spider).

    A super pastel, super fire, or ivory male won't break the bank and will make some nice combos, and even if Mom doesn't contribute a morph gene, dad will ensure you don't get any normal girls.
