I can't make up my mind (another what to add thread)

So here I am again. I know I post one of these like every 6 months or something like that. I need to add a couple more snakes and I'm not sure what to add. Do I pick males or females? Single gene or double? Here's what I have going for my projects:

1.0 Pinstripe Het OG to 0.1 OG (OG is only 1000 grams so she's not ready for this breeding season)

Well, that's pretty much it. I also have a 0.1 Spider and a 1.0 Pastel but I'm not sure if I want to breed them. My other big project is to produce a Super Enchi Spider Lesser (or Mojave) and I'm growing my 0.1 BEL up for that. I figured that I need to add a 1.0 Stinger Bee or something like that. I would REALLY like to be breeding next year. I've thought about adding a couple of breeder size normals and a couple of morph males (Black Pastel, Cinnamon).

I don't have too many projects yet. Long term I would love to get a reduced Clown but that's WAY down the road. Oh, and Fire. I'd REALLY like to add the Fire gene into my collection. My budget is severely limited. I can only afford payments of $200 a month if I were to have to pay one off. Most breeders won't go for something like that but I have found some that will.

I say go for double genes whenever you can. I know of a breeder in Florida who will accept payments and has beautiful snakes. Let me know if you want this contact information. Good luck on your search!

I got it! Thank you!

Girls Girls Girls!

hmm, lets see what you have...


2.0 "Classics" - Elmo & Ranen :snake: :snake: <--- not really useful
1.0 Pastel - Oscar :snake: <--- may be good as a backup male, to ensure that you get eggs
1.0 Pinstripe het Hypo - Romeo :snake: <--- should be bred to your OG (if they are compatible, but i think so)
0.1 Spider - Luna :snake: <--- here i disagree, i would totally breed her :)
0.1 Orange Ghost - Juliet :snake: <--- should be bred to your het hypo (if they are compatible, but i think so)
0.1 Blue Eyed Leucistic - Snow :snake: <--- really really good. but here you should have something better than a basic single-gene male.

right now i would do these pairings: pinstripe het hypo to OG / hypo. pinstripe het hypo to BEL. pastel to spider, and as a backup also to BEL.

you need, i think, 2 more females, single or double gene, but single should do. and a male that is at least 2 gene, maybe even triple gene. the BEL really deserves a better mate than what you have so far. maybe a male with mojave and some other nice gene?

anyway thats the two gaps i see; a stronger male and also more females. its good to have a chance to get triple gene stuff.

I would line yourself up with a fistful of 0.1 Pastels. They are way underrated for the money IMHO.

Put a strong double gene male on your list and save up for him. Enchi Fire or Sugar Fire works nice with those Pastel girls :gj:

I know a few breeders that will work with you on payment plans, even $200 a month which I don't think is bad, depending on varying circumstances. When I start to breed BPs I will do small payment plans if a person is able to do that. Though I'm more in it for the hobby than the money. I still say breeding boas is far less complicated because they don't lay eggs :P, though you can easily lose a female due to birthing complications.

I have some time to think about it. My normal males are pets only. I really wasn't planning on breeding the spider but that may change. I was thinking something with enchi to go with my BEL. I'd like to throw a double or triple gene to her. I hate money issues. I need more money! LOL!
