Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?

Okay, I currently have 1.0 Normal BP and 1.0 Red Tail Boa, but am interested in getting into breeding Ball Pythons. I have some extra $ and was going to buy a BP morph anyway, but think I might want to try breeding...what morphs are good to begin with? I have around $1400 I can spend on this project. Any ideas or advice is appreciated. Thanks! Oh and by the way - I was looking at a bumblebee or maybe lemon blast...I've seen a few bumblebees for around $700 and lemon blasts for $800-900

its all preference and how much money you have, with 1400 i would invest in a breeding pair of some sort like mojaves, to make some BELs....but like i said its all preference

Use the money to your advantage and pick up a young female morph and raise her up so you have time to learn the ins and outs of the animal. :gj:

actually your right:gj:

Well, if you wanted to start out with something simple, try getting a female Spider, Pastel, Cinnamon, Mojave, or something simple as that (extra money can be used for supplies).

Don't you have to breed a mojave x lesser platty to get BEL's? You don't think a bumblebee or lemon blast male with 2 normal females 2 would be good? If I got a good price I could probably find both and 2 females for $1400 or a little more...

yes but a mojave x mojave produces BELs they are just not as clean, grey heads

Would it be more wise to buy a female morph or male morph? I could breed a male morph to 2 or 3 females but could only breed 1 male to a female morph.

That's what I was thinking lol. But I'm going to wait until next October to begin breeding. I know a male will be plenty big by that time, but is it possible to get females 1200+ grams in about a year?
