Just getting into breeding and wanted recommendations on which morphs to get.

so i finally started my journey with ball pythons. currently i have a banana (m) that i have had for about a year and this weekend i picked up two more balls a cinnamon, enchi (f) and a banana, mojave, hypo (m) both 6mo of age. i need another female, i am thinking of either getting a lesser or another mojave so i can hopefully make a blue eyed leucistic. Although i am open to suggestions because there are still a lot of combinations out there that i am yet to see and fall in love with. p.s. these are the babies i just got.https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...211_170042.jpghttps://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...211_170142.jpg

1st post on a big community forum asking what to breed isn't the best idea.

I love that Banana Mojave Hypo! There are a few people that specialize in Hypo (Ghost) morphs, that's an area that not many people are really into and may be a good way to go. Also keep in mind that one male can mate with up to three females in a season so you could probably pick up more females. In fact it may be best to pick up females first because they take up to 3 years to mature before breeding. Males can be ready to breed in just over a year.

If I were you I'd pick up a female that has multiple genes that you don't have yet, maybe stick with the Ghost / Hypo project. Here would be a good female, it's a Pastel Spider Pinstripe Ghost.

If you bred her with your Banana Mojave Ghost you could get 32 different combinations with a possible six gene combo. And all of the offspring would be Hypo.
