Re: thinking.. where to go next.
Gin I love recessive stuff but your going in a dom co/dom direction if I were you I jump on Yellow bellies and cinnies. To me they hold the best possiable out come I mean bees are great but Pewters are too so are YB pastels and black balls. Everyone loves lucys but only cinni X cinni makes a black ball.
Just my two cents.
Re: thinking.. where to go next.
You have a pastel and a spider.. And your giving up on your Hypo project? I'd keep going with the hypo project if I where you! But to each his own... Good luck with what ever you do..
Re: thinking.. where to go next.
That'a a tuffie....I'd go with a female albino. (if you got the money!) But, a car is much more important.
Re: thinking.. where to go next.
I am leaning toward the female pastel idea. Now, the lemons are compatible with standard pastels, right? I would just love a nice, killer female lemon..
I am really enamored with bees, and pins, and the combos that are made out of them. This is the direction that I want to go, with the eventual goal being cash to buy a high-white pied. I know exactly what I want in a pied, and do not feel confident with the gambling in breeding hets; I could get a pied with any amount of white in breeding, but in my head I have that perfect snake vision. I figure I will breed what I have now, try to get a nice female pastel in the next 6 months, and go from there!

If you have a picture in your head of the "perfect snake" you want then I dont think I can fault you for waiting till you se that one for sale. Every time you looked at it you would be happy you waited I think.
With the hets then,yes, you could breed them every year in the hope of geting your ideal appear - but it might never happen.
Aside from the dream pied I vote for yellow belly and cinamon. :)

Jen,
In case you were still thinking about a Yellow Belly, here is a pic of our Pastel YB with a YB Female on bottom.

A Pastel female is not a bad choice either if you want to go that route.
Re: thinking.. where to go next.
depending on what the prices will be on 07 female pastels, i would personaly fill both of those tubs with pastel females. But that is what i will actually be doing so my opinoin is a little biased lol.
Also, awesome pics of the YB Pastels, next year ill be getting a spider male and a YB male, YB pastels are amazing!
Re: thinking.. where to go next.
I would get a cinny pair, you have the pastel so you can eventually try for pewters ...... Good luck anyway... :salute:
