What to get?

Well for experience I have been keeping and breeding since I was 16 and am currently 32 so there is no lack of experience. The racks that I am getting ready to build are melamine. I am doing 6 high and 3 wide per rack because for me that gives the most stability. The tubs are purchased at Wal-mart rubbermaid tubs various sizes. My goal for right now is to have 3 males and 10-15 females depending on the females that I end up getting. I currently do not have any snakes due to some issues I had in my life. While I have been away from reptiles I have been saving money so when the time is right I can get back into them. The end plan is to have everything purchased by the end of November and next year start pairing which would be why I said I am going to be getting subadult females and hatchling males. Less wait time means quicker return and faster to the end result I want. What I really want to produce is a black head pied, a red axanthic pied, and a pin pied. I also want to produce other little things here and there but those 3 are the end results which would be why I said a black head male, pied male with het females, pin combo male, and a red axanthic female. The rest are still up in the air for me. I have decided on 4 females and 2 males with the third unsure what I want him to be exactly but I do know I want pin in him.

for 10000 dollars i would get 2 or 3 GHI males and 6 or 8 nice single-gene or multi-gene females.

where the hell can you find 2 or 3 GHI males and 6-8 nice single gene females for under 10 grand?

Ummm why would I get a GHI when I have no desire to have them at this time? I thought I was pretty clear in what I was asking but apparently not. So I will reword it as simply as possible. What females would you get if you had a black head male, a pied male, and a pin combo male? I am already planning on the het pied females and a red axanthic female. Also what would you get as the combo for the pin? Does that make it a little easier?

I am seriously not trying to be rude and if I have come off that way please excuse me for it. I was not expecting this to be such a difficult question.

I'm not sure if you like the lighter stuff (I do :) ) but I'd get a butter/lesser het pied, or maybe a pastave. Those would also pair well with your pin, IMO. I'm pretty sure I saw a pair of firefly het pieds on Kingsnake. I'd kill for those!

Yeah, this guy loves to make stuff up. Recognized the username but didn't say anything until now because there isn't harm done here. I don't get it though...

SnowShredder The first link you posted is very much me and if you actually read the entire thread, mainly the last few, you would see that I have admitted my wrongs. The second link however is not me at all. I do not know who that is nor do I care.

Oh I did read the entire thread as it went on. I posted it to show making stuff up is your style. I totally get you admitted your wrongs, and that's great. I just thought you'd be honest from now on

I am being honest. I have saved quite a sum of money. Not spending on drugs leaves excess that is able to be saved.

Tattlife- weren't you living with your brother? If so, $10k goes a long way towards a down payment on a house. Just a thought!

To answer your question, maybe get a lavender albino, a mojave combo, and an ultramel for the boys you've listed. Almost anything looks good pied- you could have dreamsicles, an ultrablast (there was one floating around here recently, but I can't remember who has it), and some sweet blackhead mojaves! Obviously all of those breeding pairs would be interchangeable- lavender albino pins, ultramel mojaves, golden nuggets (mojave pied)...
