What would you guys do?

Okay I'm hoping to get a male albino that's up to breeding size, so my question is what would you guys pair him with?

Black Pastel and/or Super Mojave.

Look up the "Cherry Bomb" ball python because it is BEAUTIFUL!

Not unless it's a black pastel het albino.
Albino is a recessive trait, you may want to read up a bit on genetics before you jump into breeding. Here and here are good places to start.

As for what I would pair an albino with, a cinnamon or spider het albino.

Okay so I did some research like you said and I kind of understand but still not fully but I'm sure I'll learn and the cinnamon albino looks sweet!

Good on ya for doing some research! Genetics can be confusing if you don't have any prior experience with it. Might be worthwhile to look around this site and play with this genetics wizard as well.

It's important to understand genetics before you start breeding morphs, especially recessives, because you want to be able to correctly label the genetics of the clutch that hatches out :gj:

Keep in mind, Albinos will usually yellow out as they age so things like Albino Spiders and Mojaves will be more or less fully yellow animals as adults. I think when it comes to the Albino gene, darker is the best way to go so I'd definitely go for Albino Cinnamons or Black Pastels, or if you want to to maybe set yourself off onto a less common path, Albino Chocolates/Sable projects would be really neat.

Thanks guys I appreciate the responses and so I've been playing around with the genetics wizard and I plan on getting a het albino for him or a cinnamon or if anyone else has anything let me know!

And if any of you have and bps for sale let me know!!

Thanks!

Albino black pastels are imo one of the nicest albino combo's period, and it's one of the more affordable "nice" projects with albino also.

Some albino's fade out as they age, but if you get a nice one they won't.
Our 11 year old 2500 gram female albino with her female albino baby before her first shed

We started with an albino female adult, got lucky enough to buy a large female for $750 after she dropped eggs.
We bred a black pastel to her the first season but the second season, last year, we bred a black pastel het albino to her ... Result 2.1 albino black pastel ~ 0.2 albino ~ 3.1 black pastel het albino's ~ NO NORMAL HETS!! :)

We kept this little male, who is close to breeding size already.
I can't wait for him to make more next season.
