    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

    i doubt it that would be kinda hard unless u buy a already big 08 and 1400gr is a better breeding size

    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?

    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 :)

    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?

    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.

    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............

    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
