100% het pieds?

So I'm thinking of picking up a breeding ready pair of 100% het pieds. I want a visual but don't have the money and I want to try and make one so once everything is set that's a pair I'm getting. Who's had successes breeding two hets and getting a visual?

Last year I bred 100% het lavender albinos and got 5 eggs, with one visual male.

I've been through this dilemma recently and came to the realization that a breeder ready het female is pretty close price wise as a visual. I went with the visual.

Good point. It's really only cheaper if you raise up the pair yourself.

And also, I got 1 visual from 5 eggs last year. I got no visuals from 4 eggs this year. That's a lot of 66% possible hets. I've only managed to sell half of them so far.

I see your also from Minnesota, check out ELF reptiles he's in Minny also. I know he just hatched out a couple of Pied's and I'm sure he'll work with you on price and such.

I got a ringer male who came from two normal 100% het pied parents. Out of the 5 eggs there were two normals, one ringer, and two visual pieds. It might just be hit or miss.

tbh... i rather have adults. i have a pair thats 2 months old.. its going to take forever

If I can find a visual cheap enough ill get one of them an a het it's gonna be first try breeding when I get them an mostly jus for fun so that's why I wanna try with hets before I drop couple thousand ha I'm a broke college student. Guess it depends how nice of a time tax season is

im just a broke person period. hets are def the budget way. and if you can get breeding ready cheap enough id say go for it

Yep I gotta buddy that's been up an running for a few years now so he's gonna help me get all set up so just waiting till I get my extra student loan money and taxes to give my collection a hoping a 5 snake bumb lol specially since I found out my pet snake will stay a pet cuz it's a boy

I did het pied to double het albino pied this year, 7 eggs; 1 pied, 6 66% possible het pieds 50% possible het albinos.

Two hets can really pay off if you get lucky. I bred a pastel het pied x het pied this year and out of 7 eggs I hit 4 visuals.

I bought a het pair and raised them for 3 years. This year got 2 pieds out of 5 eggs. High white male and low white female.

To the last two posters I hope to get the odds you two got when I start with them I'm just saving up for them and then it's on. I'd love to get two pieds outta a clutch gotta buddy who ill give one too and save the other for me :)
