    Breeding plans
    Does anyone make a breeding plan for the next year's season? I have decided to go thru my racks and write down who I plan on pairing to who. Some people I have spoke with think its a waste of time, but I like the idea of planning ahead and knowing what I want to produce. Besides this coming breeding season is my biggest season yet. Anyone else?

    I plan for the worst (not getting the odds) and hope for the best :gj:.

    I have a male I hope will breed 2 ladies this year, and I'm raising a boy in case they aren't interested :gj:. Either way, I hope I hit the odds and get what I'm hoping for.

    I have my breeding plans for my snakes that will not be breeding till 2013/14 season. And have plans for what I want to pick up next and what to breed it to.

    I have a general focal point for the most part, and most of my animals fall within that range, so come breeding time, I just go with whatever I'm feeling at the moment...try to keep the thought process to a minimum.

    I have goals and ideas pop up in my head everyday that I write down in a notebook. There are so many things I want to do that I cant keep up with mental notes. It helps me go about my future purchases. I even have long term goals I set for when I have a lot more space. Like I would love to do a small project with some not so small snakes like retics! And I really love bloods so I write down things I see that I like and I do a ton of research and note taking when I get on a roll and start brainstorming. I have 2 pages of ideas that I havent seen produced yet although I have marked that some of them have actually come out yet but I am hoping that next season I can get a little bit of a start on some of these projects!

    i am. i plan for 2 different males for every female. i feel its better to plan ahead in stead of just throwing what i got together that way i can make plans for what im going to produce and start thinking about what sex i will be holding back and what i will be selling. i feel if your going to make 3-5 gene morphs planing is the only way to do it unless you just plan to buy what you need but i think it takes the fun out of it lol.
