Better 2014 project

I am looking into getting a breeding project started. I was wondering what you think will be a better investment for the future. I am debating between a crystal project and enchi lesser fire pinstripe combos.

What do you think will be a better option going forward. Its not about the money, but I also dont want to be feeding the babies I cant sell for months or years. Im asking this as a way to save myself money on the babies i cannot sell.

I like both projects and the possible outcomes, thats why im asking.

Thanks in advance

I'd say enchi lesser fire pinstripe combos, since crystals are kind of a dead end street. There is only so much you can do with them.

Oh really, i didnt realize that . I have seen some pinstripe crystals and lemon blast crystals that look pretty sweet, and havent seen may of those for sale or really around.

crystals are not a dead end, they have awesome colors and the pattern is intact.

i would say it depends on the specific pairings you can do, and what results can be expected from each of them.

Well here are my two plans below

Females

Jigsaw

Mojave Lesser

Pastave

Champagne

Mojave spider

Special

Second project

Male Super lesser

Females

Black Pastel

Pewter

Firefly

Enchi Cinnamon

Enchi Fire

Thoughts, Comments, Opinions

with so many nice double-gene female combos, it would be a shame to breed just a single-gene male to them. i think with so much genetic power on the female side, with jigsaw and pastave and firefly and mojo lesser BEL, it would be a shame to breed males to them that are inferior or comparable. in both plans i see pairings where the female is more valuable than the male. this makes no sense.


also, can you be sure one male will be able to deal with 5 or 6 females? i heared breeders use ratios like 1:3 or 2:5.

and how many of the BPs you mention do you already have?
