    What morph should I get next?
    Hello everyone!

    I recently acquired my first BP, a female Spiderball het albino. Hopefully going to be able to breed her when she is ready. Just wondering what different males I could breed her to and what the possible combinations would be? Ive been leaning towards an albino male for an albino Spiderball. What other choices are there? Not currently actually looking for the male...just simply wondering possibilities for the future :).

    Thanks!

    what is your budget.
    You could go Black pastel het albino($450) or a albino black pastel($1000-1250),Albino male($350-500), Pinstripe het albino($600-750).
    Give us your budget and we can help you a lot more.
    Just wondering do you have docs on your female being 100%het or is she a PH?

    I received her from CV Exotics. In her travel box Scott sent a printed picture of her head/body pattern and signed it saying she was 100% het albino. Does that count as docs for the snake world? I would probably like to stay right around the $1000 or so range. I have some time to save up until then! Also is a spider het albino female a good starter?

    A lot of folks will not do Spider X Spider. I would suggest a visual Albino with another Inc Dom gene (Albino BP, Albino Pin, etc...) to avoid poss hets later on.

    Awesome idea thank you! I will definitely be saving up for a male albino pin :).

    How much are albino male pins at the current market value? I was doing some searching but was only coming up with females. I think albino spinners are absolutely stunning animals.

    And regarding the documentation does a signed picture from the breeder count as documentation?

    Guarantees are only as good as the breeder making them.

    I'd pick up an albino male, and maybe another co-dom female het albino. You could do that and still stay within your limit probably.

    Is CV Exotics pretty reputable as a breeder? I found out about Scott's mistake after purchasing my little girl. However from a buyer's standpoint he was very helpful and nice to work with. I have also only read good reviews about his facility and other buyers' experiences. Can anyone comment on this?

    And what co dom female would you recommend if I went that route?

    Personally, I wouldn't purchase from them. But I'm anal retentive like that. He ended up with a high dollar animal stolen from NERD, and claimed he didn't know how much it was really worth or that it was stolen. If you'd like to read more, just do a web search for "Scott Seavey stolen ball python".

    However, I've yet to see anyone claim a het purchased from them didn't pan out.

    As far as what co-dom to go for. Well, what do you like?
