    Ball Python Dream Team
    So I have composed a plan of dream team animals that I would like to have sitting in a rack at some point and time. All of them will be produced by me from the base morphs that I have or am planning to have soon. I want to hear what your dream team is. Here are mine:
    1. Albino Pinstripe
    2. Super Black Pastel
    3. BEL
    4. Super Sable Hypo
    5. Carmel Albino Pied
    6. Panda Pied
    7. Pastel Ivory
    8. Vanilla Cream
    9. Lesser Enchi
    10. Super Fire
    11. Fire Black Pastel Champagne
    12. Pastel Mystic Potion
    13. Killer Queen Bee Enchi
    14. Killer Lesser Clown

    I would also like to see something banana and calico in there but have not decided which combo would be best. Please list your dream team.

    Axanthic fireflies. And if I can ever find that ax fire male I'd have them in my first season if the odds are right.
    Axanthic ocellots
    Axanthic firefly clowns
    Axanthic ocellot
    Lightning pied

    And of course all these in color too, but mainly my dreams are in black and white. :P

    I know of one for sale at the moment, but he doesn't come cheap!

    I'm also shooting for a lot of black and white worms. Starting a lightning pied project this season (true ghost next year fingers crossed), and aiming for axanthic killerbees and axanthic super pastels this year. I'm weirdly more excited at the thought of an ax super pastel than the killerbee though for some reason.:confusd:

    difficult, because there is so much i like to eventually own and breed.

    - a few VPI axanthic combos, with fire and other genes, would be a must.
    - a few clowns, including pinstripe clown and enchi clown.
    - a few pieds, pieds with extra genes, maybe also some leopard het pied and super leopard pied stuff.

    i like these 3 recesives A LOT, and these would open the door for two double recessive projects i also like:

    - axanthic clown project, using the axanthic combos and clown combos to occasionally make new nice double het + extra gene holdbacks.
    - same with axanthic pied

    then, for dominant/codominant stuff:

    - the regular recombination game with base morphs like fire, enchi, pastel, pinstripe, calico, mojave, lesser, leopard, black pastel, yellowbelly. just shooting for nice double or triple gene combinations. this also helps to support the recessive projects by making it easy to make hets with nice extra genes. ultimately, as prices come down, GHI, banana, and bamboo would need to be added as well.

    - a blue-eye-leucistic project with super phantom / super mystic combos and also super mojave stuff, for nice clutches of mystic potions / purple passions. also some high-white BELs, lesser mojave would fit in nicely.

    - ivory project, to enable and support stuff like puma or highway.

    i need to stop myself, i could go on and on.

    I think I'm just going to copy your list!!!

    I'm pretty new to ball pythons, so I am constantly finding morphs that make me say, "OOOOHHH! What's THAT?!" and as I looked up the Axanthic Firefly and the Lightning Pied I now have two more "must haves". I also really like the Banana GHI and the Banana Ktulu... and I can't wait to see what a Banana Sunset actually looks like. The nice part is that my wife really likes the Axanthics and GHIs, so trying to convince her at some point down the road that I need to spend $5k+ on a GHI may be easier than if she didn't like them.

    Other snakes that are high on my list are
    • Axanthic Champagne
    • Mystic Potions / Super Phantoms
    • Lesser BELs
    • Super Black Pastel (and Panda Pied)

    I'm sure there are a hundred more that I'm forgetting right now, but these are the ones that I am currently in love with.

    On the flip side, the one gene that I have no desire to ever have in my collection is the Spider gene. I know that it can do some really cool things to a lot of different morphs, but my buddy has a Bumble Bee that is SUPER derp... just watching it move around upside down, and the STRANGE things it does inside it's enclosure have turned me off from the gene. It's 100% a personal choice, and I totally understand why people like the snakes appearance, but I don't like it.
