    What ball python morphs should I get into?
    I have been breeding normal's for 2 seasons now. Now that I have some experience under my belt and money from my part timer, I want to start getting into raising/ breeding morphs oh these awesome animals. There is a expo coming up in about a month by that time I will have about 1300 to spend give or take. I want to get 3 or 4 snakes, but open minded to any suggestions.. I need your guys and girls help.. Thanks!!:):)

    Try finding a male bumblebee to run thru ur existing normal females. that way u are still using some of ur collection efficiently

    Personally I would look for a nice 2 gene male like a pewter, pastel yellowbelly, bumble bee. I would also look for a few nice single morph females. I would base them off the male that I had decided on.

    If u breed a bumblebee to a normal u can get bumblebees jungle pastels and spiders. It kinda breaks the morph back down and u can still get bumblebees

    I agree. A couple double gene animals would be good. A nice butter pastel, lemon blast, or black pewter. If it were me id get recessive stuff...but that's me. ;)

    You should get a bumble bee. I currently have a bumble bee male and a pastel female and will be getting a normal female to also pair with him. If you breed a bumble bee to a normal you will get bumble bees, pastels, spiders, and normals. Then you can hold back a female pastel and breed it to the bumble bee and get some killer bees, super pastels, bumble bees, pastels, and spiders. But, that is just my opinion.

    I say get whatever your heart desires lol everyones taste is different but personally I love recessive projects. They are so much fun and always a gamble!

    The market is killed with so-so Bumble Bees and Lemon Blasts right now. I would find a different direction that you like.

    Possible Males I would consider:
    Fire YB
    Vanilla Pin
    Fire Fly
    Black Pewter

    I would then get a Vanilla or Fire Female to round out the group for now.

    That is my opinion, there really are a million ways to go on this one.
