    Quality Lemon Blast?

    Hey everyone,
    I'm trying to acquire some females to start a project with a spinner blast male. Hoping to produce some killer spinners, bumble bees, etc.
    I contacted this breeder on craigslist who is selling a lemon blast female who is currently 800 g.
    My initial reaction was that she is very browned out but as I am fairly new with ball pythons and having never owned a lemon blast I am not sure.
    Is this a quality lemon blast or could I do better?

    Where's the blast? Or where's the lemon? I'm certainly no expert, but you'd have a hard time convincing me there is any pastel in there. ..

    I would pass. Personally, at this point, I wouldn't even bother adding in pastel to your projects unless it is top notch. If you don't have good quality pastel, the appearance of the combos gets worse very quickly, and then you end up with a brown adult..... As far as pinstripe combos go, look into adding hypo, mojave, lesser, fire, etc. Those all make stunning combos that get BETTER with age

    I'm going to hijack this thread and ask about my future lemon blast, hope that's ok.

    Quality lemon blast or not?

    So Marissa would something like this be better: http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/for/4954206294.html
    They are some lesser het orange ghosts. Are they quality though?
    I really like the look of lessers and mojaves I just don't know what I will be trying to produce in the end. What are some good combos with the genes you mentioned?
    Thanks,
    Greg

    I also love what enchi does to combos. Like I said though I'm not sure what combos I should be shooting for.
    Any ideas as to some fantastic looking combos with those fire, enchi, lesser, and mojave genes? Maybe hypo as well?
