    Which is which

    Hi there I am looking forward to buy a new male ball python as my future pair/breeder to my normal females. I am also confused on which morph to choose from.should I choose:
    A. Bumblebee
    B.firefly
    C.lemon blast
    D.firemon
    E.fire pinstripe
    F.spinner

    I have a tight budget, so these are the ff that fits to it. Please help me decide so confusing ;(

    Pick the one that produces what you like the most. That way u don't mind holding on to ones that don't sell right away. All are good choices the more genes the better is a general rule of thumb.

    What females do you have? Personally, I would avoid pastel (unless it is top notch) and steer more towards things that get better with age, like fire combos, or darker animals.

    However, it isn't about what I would do. Get something you are passionate about and that wows you every time you open that tub. That is the most important thing.

    Of your list, I'd go with a spinner.

    If you like all of those combos, I'd recommend a calico or sugar female to go with them . Sugars/calicos are crazy fun! They throw out varying amounts of white, lots of yellow/orange highlights, and cool patterns for relatively cheap!

    What YOU like and what you hope to produce knowing that since you have normal females you will only produce more of the same which will be single genes and double genes animals, something to consider in this market.

    Re: Which is which

    thanks for all your response. i would like a snake that will not fade when reaches its adulthood. i also wanted to pick bumblebee but i am afraid as most of the spider genes wobbles. are they much harder to take care of?

    Re: Which is which

    I have an albino spider female that has no visible wobble at all. The only thing that is noticeable are missed strikes when eating but she never gives up and has always been a strong eater. Now I have read that the wobble can come and go in varying degrees so she mat do it some day but I have not seen it yet.

    Based on my limited experience, it does not make them any more difficult to care for and I would guess it does not affect their desirability much as there still seems to be a good market for spiders and morphs that contain the spider gene.

    Just my 2

    Most of the videos on youtube. Are the absolute worse case. I have seen close to 300 different spider gened morphs in person and never seen one that bad. My spiders only display wobble when in feed mode.
