Ok, which way would you go first?
My husband and I are having a hard time deciding which morph to introduce to our current collection first. We are looking for a breeding size female yo go with our lesser pastel male.
He wants a pinstripe, I want a Mohave.
Now, assuming we can find a breeder of each type and based on what we already own (in my sig), which would you buy first? Keep in mind that we fully intend on introducing the other morph to our breeding plans at some point.

Definitely this if you could budget it. It'd be a lot harder to find a breeding sized female, though. If you were willing to pick up a hatchling/sub-adult though... :P

If we could budget it this would be an ideal solution, however we do have limited funds and are looking for a breeding size female. I don't think a Jigsaw would fit our budget!:) I suppose I can wish though!

All depends on your budget. You will likely pay twice as much for an adult Mojave than a Pin. You could buy a 0.1 Pin and a 0.1 Mojave in the 700g- 800g range for close to the same as a breeder Mojave girl and have both up to size with no problem by fall.
I understand and would not think of buying from anyone but a reputable breeder. However, from what I've seen online, the price difference between a breeder Mohave female and a breeder Pinstripe female is negligible?
I very much want to breed this coming season (one clutch only) but I also want to be sure the female is healthy and ready too breed.

why not get both i have seen a few pins going around $100 +s&h.

Well, I really want to breed a clutch this coming season. This will be my first clutch so I want to be sure everything is optimal before I even begin. After this, I am not planning on buying another breeder sized female. However, if you know where I can find quality breeder size Pins, please let me know!

I must apologize. I had initially prepared a much nicer response than I presented. My browser was providing difficulty which made me provide a short answer.
You are correct, I think at this point our plan is to buy an adult Mohave and at a later date, purchase a juvenile Pin.
So sorry about my terse responses. Every time I posted a reply the page would freeze on me, to the point I had to be short and sweet.
