Female Prices for a Butter Bee, Butter Sterling and Butter Pewter?

All three of them are just so beautiful, it'll have to some down to the price. I tried googling it but cant find it! And i will want to breed what ever one i choose with my yellow belly, even though it'll be in afew years

You can also look for lesser combos. Lesser and Butter are so close to the same thing that many people (including me) believe they are the same morph. The Butter Pewter is going to be the most expensive, with three genes, but that would give you the most possible results. Have you tried looking on FaunaClassifieds or Kingsnake.com? The classifieds there are a pretty good indicator of market price. I'm seeing Lesser Bees for $400-500 and that's going to be your cheapest option. Just remember that price is often dependent on quality, and one of the only ways to make your animals stand out when you're trying to sell hatchlings is to have the best examples of the parents you can get. To breed quality you have to buy quality.

Thank you kind stranger! I do have another year or two before I can buy, and before Java gets mature, he's only afew months old. But! I like to plan ahead. What one would be best to breed with a yellow belly?

Keep in mind that your female is going to take probably 3 years to get up to breeding weight, while your male will be ready by next season. As far as what I would pick between what you said, I would go with a Butter Black Pewter. I prefer the Black Pastel gene over the Cinny gene, so I would be picky about which one it had.

I wouldn't particularly breed any of those to a yellowbelly myself. I would go for something in the YB Complex, or even just a plain, nice fire would make stunning babies with a YB.

I would go here, and play around, deciding what kind of genes you like and how they interact with the YB gene. And you might decide you like something else a lot more!

Thanks. Again. And i go on there all the time, its just so fun. Its just hard to decide what one to get :/ they're all so pretty and make so many many cool babies. Decisions decisions

Invest in a Yb female, breeding a lesserbee female to a single gene yellow belly isn't super wise. Better off getting an ivory or other two gene male to put with such a valuable female. That way, you still have a girlfriend for your Yb boy but won't be committing breeding suicide by putting a $65 snake with a $1200 one. You want to put your money into your males because they can go to multiple females.
