    Potential, vibrantly colored crosses with a male Russo BEL or a female BEL (Mocha?)
    Hello, I'm a newb. Please give me recommendations. I recently purchased these baby balls. Can these be crossed together for a BEL, or what other morphs should I be hunting for?
    I also have a (?) albino bp, a male bee bp, and a (?) wild type.

    Considering you may very well have three males, I wouldn't worry about any potential breeding. You don't have anything in the BEL complex, so there is zero possibility of producing a leucistic of any kind with what you have. Even if both unknowns were female, the best you could do with what you have is a het albino bee, thought that wouldn't be for a few years. If you are really wanting to breed in the future I recommend lots of research into ball python morphs and genetics and steering clear of unsexed snakes in the future, as the gender of your animals is incredibly important.

    Thanks for the input Daigga :)

    I receive my female BEL and female Banana Enchi tomorrow from BSR. When I ordered the female BEL, the genetics were unavailable, regarding if it's mojave/lesser/butter/ russo mix, yet the price was a steal. The original point of the post was to receive suggestions on how to cross the two BELs, whether together or with another morph. I also have a female low white pied on order from TGR. With my current stock of a newly acquired male coral glow, male Super Russo, and the aforementioned strains in the first post, I figured I could try to breed something amazing.

    In my opinion breeding the male coral glow to the female pied when she gets to age and size yielding cg het for pied male and breeding that back to mom when she regains her weight and he starts producing plugs and is matured enough to breed would be my plan cg pieds are always amazing.
