Can't decide on a 2 gene male...

I just can't decide on a two gene male right now. I should have my female pastel up to size next season and some female normals. I'm really eyeing the pairing with my female pastel and am looking for a good two gene male to try and hit a triple gene of some sort. What two gene would you choose?

Pewter

Lesser Bee

Fire Yellowbelly

Bumblebee

Firefly

Fire something else...

Something else.

Any opinions would be appreciated and I would love to hear comments...

Thank you in advance.

Enchi fire ... Unlined possibilities with that!

I really love this combo as well, but from what I've seen it might be a bit out of my price range... If I could find one for a decent price I would be all over it! good recommendation! Thank you!

Fire YB, Fire Enchi, or Fire vanilla!

I would definitely do something with either fire or enchi in it (preferably both)

Out of the males you have listed, I would go with fire yellowbelly, they are HOT! Jinx has one and it is stunning!

Enchi Fire, Enchi Butter, Fire Butter.... I would try to get something double gene with Enchi, or Fire.

The price of a good two gene male cannot be underestimated. Look at the possibilities with your Pastel.

I hit females hard my first year. They are growing so fast I am now trying to play catch up with some good double gene males. I have added:

1.0 Fire Butter
1.0 Enchi Pastel
1.0 Enchi Fire

pastel calico or enchi lesser

Firefly...put it with a lesser to make some killer lesser fireflys or a fire and get super fires, fireflys, fires and pastels

There are tons of 2 genes males maybe even 3 genes that you could get the question is, what is your budget?

Here are the things I keep in mind when it comes to picking up the right male

My budget and what I want to produce (of course this also depends on the females that will be paired to that male.)

Calider is my vote just cause that what I want lol

Ya budget is not unlimited unfortunately. I'm hoping to stay around $750 maybe less, but I also am looking for absolute best quality for breeding purposes.

I love the enchi fire and I think it owuld be ideal, but not sure I can swing the price tag... I think something with fire is a must right now and for females to pair him to in the future, I'm thinking maybe just like a lesser, enchi, and then maybe a recessive, maybe clown or axanthic...

I'm kind of leaning toward the firefly or fire yellowbelly, I think I can pick a really nice example of the morph for my budget... thoughts anyone?

Just depends on what you want to do. :)
I voted fire yellowbelly, because I like what I've seen fire do to different morphs (based on pictures, haven't seen one in person yet, at least not that sticks out in my head), and the yellowbelly seems to combine nicely with pastel too.

Second choice would be maybe a pewter... I don't know what pastel combined with pewter looks like, but a pewter bred to a normal (since you mentioned also having normal girls to breed) could give you mojave, cinnamon, and pewter, which in my opinion are nice morphs. I personally am not a fan of yellowbelly or fire by themselves, but I do like cinnamon and mojave, so I like those possibilities better. But it is all a matter of personal opinion and preferences!

Just a heads up, a pewter is a pastel cinnamon, not a mojave cinnamon.

That's right! I misspoke. Going to blame it on lack of sleep... (late night, then baby wake me up crying every hour... you get the picture!)

Another option I was thinking was maybe cinnamon lesser... Make some pewter lessers... they are pretty sweet I think. But I really think I need ot have either enchi or fire in him...

thank you everyone for posting and commenting, it is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Calder

Out of what you listed, I'd go with Fire Yellowbelly. Lots of potential there! There is a lot you can do with $750 and a Pastel female. Like others have said, anything with Fire/Vanilla, YB, and/or Enchi you can't go wrong right now!

I picked up my firefly for $650. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/23/8u7azusu.jpg

Enchi lesser, pastel sugar, pastel lesser... So many possibilities to choose

The fire is not really cool on it's own unless you get a very above average one. You need a vanilla to unlock it. The vanilla is very much like a fire but I think it's a better version.

You need a vanilla female and your pretty set.

I could put that in the lineup...

I think I know what I'm gonna go with. Firemon (Fire Cinnamon).. :banana::banana::banana: hopefully make some pewter fires and then put him with a lesser female in the future and enchi female also. And a vanilla female

I think the fire and cinnamon is kind of a combo that not to many people are leaning towards so I could potentially make some pretty cool stuff.

Thanks again everyone!

Calder

GREAT choice IMO. Good luck on the triple!

Excellent choice! Im hoping to make some firemons this year, pairing my fire to my cinniS

pewter fire is pretty cool

Great choice on the Firemon and good luck with your hunt to find a quality animal!:gj:

I say Fire YB hands down.

Here is mine. He was bred by Mark Petros.

He is HANDSOME!

I bought a citrus pastel queen bee this year. At his weight he should be ready next season. There is a lot available for under 1000 these days.
Lemon pastel bling yellow belly from need is a cool combo. Pick up a fire female and you'd be breeding some sweet things in a couple of years.

Lesser bee
Butter bee
Fire spider


Possible for a queenbee or a fire bee!!!! Both are smoking!

Whoa baby that thing is SEXY!!!!

So just an update, I decided to put a down payment on a Fire YB from Justin Kobylka. It's definitley not as light as yours, but from waht I could see in the pics, he looked sexy to me. Super sweet yellowbelly flames. Hopefully have the little guy early next month! I might just have to make my own Firemon's later in the game. It's all for fun though so I'm pumped! :D

Spider Mojave!
