Pastel Vs Spider Vs Pinstripe Ball Python

What would be a Better Morph to breed to A normal for Someone starting a Breeding Project. In the long run which do you Guys/Ladies think would Be a better choice.

Pastel, Spider, Or Pinstripe Ball python


Thanks

what ever one your like the most. It all depends on what you hope to produce in the future. each have morphs they go perfect with, and ones they don't go so good with. its all a matter of personal preference.
i would pick spider or pinstripe. just because there is to many pastels out there, and it seems its getting harder and harder to get a good quality one.

Thanks For the Input

or you could always do a 2 gene male, like a bumble bee, spinner, lemon blast. That would take care of 2 of the males your were thinking about. or another 2 gene male. More genes more variation in a clutch(except supers).

Do you have the 4 snakes or are you looking to purchase the male?

Pastels have gone down in price quite considerably over the last 2 years. Unless its a superb example of the morph I wouldnt even bother to be honest.

Spider or pinstripe is the way to go in this example I think. And I would go with the pin personally, you wont have to worry about any wobbles unlike the spider. I personally like pins over spiders anyday.
Good luck on your future projects!

Looking the Purchase the Male

Are you on a tight budget? Because if you have the money a double gene male would be the way to go.

Working with a 200$-250$ Price Budget

I am partial to pastels, they mix well with everything. Think of what you like and lay your foundation;)
I did 2 pastel clutches because I need some females to hold back, first cluch was all males:mad:

With your choices and budget I would prolly go with the pin OR try and find a good looking mojave:D

average examples of each morph, I would go with pin. If a good looking pastel or spider came up.... I would go with that.

Pastels may be low price wise but are ESSENTIAL to numerous combos out there, people tend to forget that it has probably been the most influential mutations on the market. IMO pastel or super pastel females are more valuable to a collection than the price reflects.

Ill keep you guys Updated on the pickup :D

Inc-dom mutations will be much more valuable in the long run than dominant mutations due to the fact that you can produce a visually distinct homozygote. Of the three you listed, I would wait to find an exceptional example of pastel to purchase. You will spend more than the $75 that people on average are asking, but it will be worth every penny. I believe Garrick DeMeyer has some nice ones available on his website http://www.royalconstrictordesigns.com/ I'm sure you could find some other pretty nice ones if you looked around long enough. It may also be worth checking out any expos that may be coming up in your area so you are looking at the actual animal as opposed to just a photograph.
