Please advise. Which "package"to buy?

Quick guys...I need some advice. We have 2 choices of ball python "packages"we can buy right now:

1.0 proven breeder fire and 0.1 breeder size unproven citrus pastel

Or 1.0 breeder size unproven Mojave visual orange ghost, 0.2 proven breeder 100% het OG, 0.1 not yet breedable 100% het OG, and 0.1 not yet breedable pastel 50% het OG. So 1 Mojave OG male and 4 het females, 2 breedable now, 2 not

The OG project is $200 more.

So....which is gonna be a better choice.....fireflies or OG's, some Mojave OG's?

We trust the source so I'm not too worried about the hets not proving out.

Thanks!

I would say the OG project. But go with what you want to make. You will have a lot more babies to sell with the OG project.

I just purchased a 2012 Firefly female for $850, shipped but with the ones you're looking at being a younger pair, you'd have quite a while before they would be breeding age and you could make any of your investment back. Were it me, I'd go with the second package (Mojave Orange Ghosts). You'll have no problems recouping your investment on that deal with your two breeder females and with the younger two, you could hang onto them or sell them off. I love my Firefly that I just bought but if my wife and my bank balance would allow for it, I'd absolutely add some hypo to the vanilla mojave male I have. Recessives are more work but if you have a visual male and a few het females, you're upping your odds considerably. That, and hypo mojaves are H-O-T!, lol! Ultimately it comes down to what you like; if you're just doing it for the money, I wouldn't plan on it holding your interest or being a long-term thing if they don't prove out. Pick what you like and go for it. Good luck, whatever you decide.

The OG project looks to be already on track. You just need to keep the little ones growing and get the larger ones doing the dirty.

Ghost projects are pretty cool IMO.

Yea that's what we were thinking. I just love fireflies so much lol and my bf and I are very indecisive so we have to ask. Also I know I've seen OG's go for pretty cheap so I wanted to make sure it would be a good purchase. Thanks

Ghost stuff sells like hot cakes around here.

I like Fireflies... but come on, this is sweet.....

True That!

You could easily fund the purchase of a Firefly with the sale of the babies from your OG Mojave project, possibly even this year and definitely by next year if everyone stays on feed and nothing comes up. A single-gene orange ghost won't sell for much but with the mojave in there and a visual morph at that, you'd be doing fine if you produce a few of those. I'd say go with that package and use the funds from the sale of the offspring to get yourself a Firefly or whatever it is you're wanting to add. Ghost stuff is hot, like Slim said; you'll have no problem moving them, especially being two-gene animals. The orange ghosts might linger a bit before selling but a visual OG Mojave...sign me up! :gj:
