    Which morph to get next?
    Hi everyone,

    I have a Champagne butter female and a Mojave male. Female is still 6 months old, male is 2 years old.

    Which morphs would be wise to add to my collection next? Some nice morphs that together with the above genes would make a cool looking ball?

    Thanks for your input!

    An albino female with a gene from the Bel complex, such a butter/lesser, russo, bamboo. I'd recommend an albino bamboo.


    You could produce a BEL het albino male from this female, then run him back to her to produce REL's.

    Ghi for the mojave or something like the above mentioned lesser. Ghi lesser would be cool too then maybe hit some ghi mojaves or some bels. But probably not cheap. Both those would be my pick for mojave. In fact I'm pairing my mojave pastel this year with a ghi. Champagne is kinda hard. I got one and this year will pair her with my enchi clown. Enchi Champagne is imo the coolest Champagne combo. Plus i hope to bank on some normal and enchi het clowns and hopefully one enchi Champagne to add to my collection.

    I dont want to rain on any parades here, but how long have you been keeping snakes? Are these your first two?

    I'm only asking because we see TONS of people on here looking for breeding advice LONG before they're ready.

    If youre a first time breeder you'll likely have a hard time moving the animals, so be prepared to keep most if not all for a while.

    Not to mention, the BP world is already ridiculously over saturated. For example, there are over 16,250 BPs available for sale right now on morphmarket alone.

    Just food for thought. I'm not trying to discourage you.

    Why not go for a normal instead of getting a pet based only on looks?

    Unfortunately, the market for normals is almost non-existent.

    Upon rereading my post I realized how rude I came off, that wasn't my intention and I apologize.
    It does make me sad though when I see people who only have morphs and only seem interested in getting them. Saying "What morph should I get next!?" When they already have 6-7+ different morphs just feels...I dunno, weird? They're a pet, not a collector's item. I wish more people appreciated normals and that breeding morphs hadn't become such a huge fad.

    The only 2 bps I own are normals because they're my favorite "morph" haha.

    My first bp was a normal and thats what got me hooked. I must admit I currently dont own any normals except a few hets. You really can't blame people for wanting morphs though. There's just so many different combos and they're so beautiful. Not that normals aren't. If it wasn't for that first one (Pete the snake) I would have probably never been into bps at all.

    Maybe get some kind of leopard combo for your mojave, they make stunning stuff with Mojave's.
    Here is a few examples of what I made with leopard and mojave in the mix

    Leopard Mojave Pastel Fire

    Also GHI would be a good choice for both butter and mojave
    Just make sure you do extensive research on breeding and make sure you have a working incubator built or bought before you start pairing
    Its not as easy as some people make it look. Also look on world of ball pythons and mess with the genetic calculator to see what kind of babies you would make, breed what you like not what others like!
