Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
yea u could but its a longer wait and male is more smart move cause if u get a female u can just breed her to on reg or morph if u get a male u can breed it to a bunch at one time
get a male bumble bee and female pinstripe make some
spiders
pinstripes
spinners
bumble bees
and if ur lucky nice lemon blast!!!!!!!!!
thats what u would get
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
i doubt it that would be kinda hard unless u buy a already big 08 and 1400gr is a better breeding size
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
That's an idea - a male bumblebee and female pinstripe sounds like an awesome combo. Would also get another 2 normal females for the bumblebee male to breed as well. Maybe a pastel female too. What would a bumblebee x pastel make? Could it make a killer bee?
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
i'm not 100% on these percentages, but here goes:
Bumblebee ball python x Pastel ball python
25% pastels
25% bumblebees
12.5% normals
12.5% spiders
12.5% super pastels
12.5% killer bees

Look like pretty nice percentages to me - mine as well pay a little more for a pastel female or two rather than normal females. Or maybe 1 pastel female and 1 normal female because I'd definitely like to get a spider or two :)
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
if it were me breeding and makin my own bee and blast would be much more rewarding. you could always get a male pastel and a female spider and female pin for the same price maybe a little bit more than the bee by itself. but its up to you. enjoy!

This is true - but what are the chances of making a bee or blast? A pastel x spider is 1/4 for a bee right? Is pastel x pin the same odds for making a blast?
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
I'm also looking to make my $ back the first year...I'm a college student so don't have too much time to sit around and "experiment". Need to make some money back pretty quick - that's why I was thinking bumblebees..if I get even 1 or 2 from the clutches that's already $800-1600 which would cover the cost of everything.
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
25% pastels
12.5 bumblebees
12.5% normals
25% spiders
12.5% super pastels
12.5% killer bees
would be my guess
..............then i again i would not know.........im trying to make super pastels,and bumblebees this year.........if i can get them up to size..................this is my first year also with bp's
in co-dom /dom
i have 2.0 spider and 1.3 pastels........so it should be interesting............if you have money go for the gusto..........I went with a variety.......with hets too so that way if i dont have certain ones to size or if they dont go i sill have others to try out........because its not 100% the pair you get will breed........and not 100% you will have and hatch a sucessfull clutch......IMO get something you like ......with spiders and pastels they are good base morphs to make a lot of beauts!
i would say
1.1 pastel
1.1 spider
0.1 cinnamon
0.1 lesser
around your $$$ and can make pastels,super pastels,bumble bees,pewters,lesser bees,pastel lesser........then next year.....killer bees,BEL,super cin,etc etc with just that.........just a suggestion............
Re: Want to start breeding...what morphs to get?
if u wanna make money quick i dont think u should breed bp cause it takes time and patience i had 6 eggs last year and 3 were slugs so think u should think about it
