    Need help in picking new breeder female

    Hey guys,

    I am about to pick from 3 breeder females to choose from that will pair up with my male mojave and pinstripe. Out of the three which should I choose as the most valuable for future projects? Cinnamon, Congo Pastel, and Spider. Thanks!

    buy what you like.

    but i never heared about "congo pastel", are they are thing, really? i guess they are just pastels.

    other genes you might consider are calico/sugar, lesser/butter, black pastel (i prefer them over cinnamon), enchi, fire, yellowbelly. these, together with the 5 you already mentioned, are the basics, at least when it comes to codominant / dominant.

    then, there is this article:

    http://ballpythonbreeder.com/2012/02...thon-breeders/

    i guess you will breed the pinstripe male and mojave male until you hit some double-gene males with pinstripe or mojave in them, and then they become less useful because its fast and easy to get a male hatchling up to breeding size.

    EDIT: to decide which of the 3 is best, we would need good pictures of all of them, so that we can judge if they are good examples of the morph.

    The Big Bang almost certainly (beyond reasonable doubt) happened 13.7 billion years ago. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Evolution is a fact, evolutionary theory explains why it happens and provides four different lines of evidence that coalesce to show that evolution is a fact. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    One third of the global economy relies on technology that is based on quantum mechanics, especially quantum electrodynamics (electron-photon or electron-electron interactions). If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Time Dilation is real, it is so real that all clocks if they are precise enough can measure it, and GPS could not possibly work without it.
    If you disagree, send me a PM.

    The 4 philosophically most important aspects of modern science are: Evolutionary theory, Cosmology, Quantum mechanics, and Einsteins theory of general relativity. Understand these to get a grip of reality.

    congo is a dominant gene founded by Vin russo, it tends to be a clean up gene. If it it actually a congo pastel, I would say that would be my choice out of the 3, but you might want to look at other examples of congo pastels and make sure it is not just a pastel.

    Pick the female for the combos you like best. If you like cinnamon mojaves or cinnapins, go with the cinnapin. If you like mojave spiders or spinners better, then go with the spider.

    If you do not want the chance of trainwreck babies, I would go for the...

    Cinnamon. The Cinnamon Hypo is amazing.
