    What would you do? (Breeding Question)

    Now I'm not breeding anything this year, but I aspire to become a breeder and try my luck next November. My question however is more of an opinion on what you would do. With the current collection I have now, what would you breed?

    I was contemplating breeding my male Pastel to my female Spider, and try for Bees. My male Pinstripe to my female Pastel, and try for Lemonblasts. And I'm picking up a het VPI Axanthic to breed to my male VPI.
    But the two Pastels I currently own, are both het for Hypo. So I could also breed my two Pastels together and go for Super pastels, and Hypos. And then breed my Spider and Pinstripe and try for Spinners.
    I’m trying to look into the future for projects I may yet get into. And the possibilities are endless and I get a total nerdgasm when I talk about breeding these guys. So I’m looking for honest opinions on what you seasoned breeders would do.


    Thanks for the opinions!
    I've got quite a few...

    If it were me, I'd pair your pastel boy to your spider & pastel girls. And pair the axanthic to the albino for het snows. Hypo super pastels would be nice!

    Re: What would you do? (Breeding Question)

    "Nerdgasm"....lmao!! I would def breed the two pastel het hypos....have you seen a super pastel hypo? Gorgeous! I would also breed the axan to the spider, keep any spiders from the clutch, and breed back to the axan n het axan. Axanthic spiders are awesome lookin.

    Thanks for the feedback guys, that's what I originally wanted to do with my pastel het hypos, breed them and hope for a super pastel hypo. But to be honest, I would be ecstatic with anything I breed out.

    I second the het snows. There's a lot that hasn't yet been done with them, as far as I know, anyway. I imagine because the product is simply a white snake with some patterning that isn't as crisp as a BEL. But I for one want to see a snow clown. O.o

    I also like spinners, because they make fun combos later. But that's just me. :3
