    Drowning in Paint Jobs
    Hello! I'm brand new to this thread and been reading every section of it, I'm a huge fan of BPs and the morphs they come in. I've been studying as best I can but honestly everything is hard to take in. Currently I would like to plan ahead what types I would want to buy and breed. I have been swooning over the thought of breeding but as I've realized from this thread that just breeding normals or pastels isn't the best idea.

    I don't want to add to a problem but I am very interested in breeding them still. Problem is I don't know where to start. I thought perhaps I would try to make axanthic fireflies as it was the first snake I fell in love with but is that too popular of a breed to create? (Again, it's a beautiful snake but I don't wanna overflow people with basic morphs)

    As I adore most paint jobs what would the community really love to see? I honestly would like to make a business out of it and want to know breeders opinions.

    Honestly I'm still very new and got a few years ahead of me before I can start breeding and I'm sure there will be new morphs but I do wanna know what you guys think!

    (If this is a stupid thread I am so, so sorry and I'll delete it if possible right away!)

    No need to apologize - we LOVE talking about our favorite snakes here!

    :welcome:

    IMO, Axanthic Fireflys are an awesome goal! Definitely not a run-of-the-mill combo by any means. There are lots of ways to start out if you're shooting for this combo. I'd make sure you start with females in the first year, as they'll take twice as long to grow up to breeding size. This way, you can buy your male(s) a year from now and save up for them while getting your girl(s) up to size.

    Good luck!

    Ah thank you so much! The advice is direly needed haha. I'm so glad my goal isn't poorly chosen!
