2010-2011 Breeding Season Plans

This is my first year attempting to breed the balls:

Pastel x Pinstripe

For this season I have:

2000 gram clown male X 2000 gram black pastel female
2000 gram clown male X 1400 gram yellow belly female
2000 gram clown male X Matrix pastel female(pending breeder loan)
500 gram yellow belly dinker to 2 2000 gram normals(try to prove him out)
500 gram Fire male X 2 2800 gram normals
900 gram male black pastel X 1800 gram albino female
900 gram male Black pastel X 1800 gram granite female

That's probably all but one or two might pop up yet, good luck to all this coming season!

Sounds like everyone has some great pairings coming! Nice pics to everyone who posted them! ;)

I can't wait to see some pics of babies next year!

This season, I'll just have Pastel male x Pewter Female again, but next year I'll have my smoking Pastel YB and a really nice YB up to size and I'll also have a ridiculous Fire that should breed next season, so 11-12 is going to be my first big season.

Beautiful spider! I am hoping my het albino will be up to size this year so I can breed too! She may be a late breeder!

I really like your pastel! Hope you get lots of lemon blasts!

Looks like it'll be an exciting year for everyone! :gj:

Here's what I'm planning for the upcoming season, not including the corn snakes (still debating over whether to breed them). I'm also a little male-heavy right now, so I'll either play some "who's the daddy" or pick up another breeding female.

Julius the Mojave (with his recent offspring)

Will be paired with Nerissa - normal

Also might pair her with Toby the pastel, unless I get another female...

Then my (high contrast) het albino pair... Orlando x Rosalind.

Rosalind is just shy of 1400g now, but pounding rats like candy. ;)

Next there's Vinnie the Spider

x Mona - normal

Finally I have a "questionable" female normal, Delilah... still under 1000g, so I doubt she'll make it. :cool:

If she does by some miracle, I'll pair her with Dave the Black Pastel!

Lolo, I bought in the middle of last august and decided not to breed her until she was over 1800 g. Well, she got there by about mid-December and kept on eating through the breeding season. If she gets to about 1400-1500 g, try pairing her once and even if there isn't a copulation, that should send her into an eating frenzy and she should easily get there.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tips. :) I'm thinking she won't get to 1400g this winter, since she's not a big eater (mice only, 2-3 weekly)... we'll see, but I'm not gonna push her!

I have been waiting several season for this year to come around.

pos het snow female x DH snow male

het albino female x DH snow male

DH axanthic ghost female x DH snow male( I don't have a DH axanthic ghost male so I'm hoping for some axanthics pos het for both ghost and albino. This is going to be a long but interesting triple recessive project.)

pastel female x pastel male

I have a normal female that I might let take the year off. If I breed her it will probably be with the DH snow male for more pos het snow females.

I need some more codom's, Most of my snakes look like normals. You guys at least have cool snakes to look at while you are growing them.
