breeding question

okay, so i'm completely daft when it comes to this but...

if i purchase a lemon jungle female and breed her to a normal male... what do i get in the babies


or

if i breed the lemon jungle female to a 100% het pied male... what do i get?


would it make a difference if i breed a 100% het female to a normal male?

trying to decide what to buy from adam!!!! cause folks... he can and will ship to canada so i am definitely getting some of his balls!!!!

correct me if I'm wrong

Jungel pastel x normal = 2 pastels 1 normal 1 66% het

lemon x het pied is the same as above except they would all be 50% or het for pied.

go one get you some of Adams Balls.. I have heard their quite impressive.. LOL :carrot:

and to confuse you... i edited my post while you were responding :P

Male or female doesn't change the out come the gene are the same.

the het is 100% pied. so i wouldn't get any pied at all?

okay so here's what i'm trying to figure out.

do i buy a 100% het pied female and a lemon pastel male?

or do i buy the het male and pastel female?

i have a normal male now...

or is it better to buy both het and pastel in female? and breed them to my normal male?

i'm so freakin' confused :(

Hey Aleesha. Why not call him? He's absolutely wonderful, and will help you decide what is best for you. (Of course, have in mind what you are looking to produce and your budget. ;) )
(Sheesh... I reread that, and I feel like I'm pimping him out or something. Ugh, I cannot even believe I used that word. Ok, I've officially lost it! :crazy: )

giggling... i bet adam likes to be pimped out LOL

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

well honestly i wanted to figure out what i wanted before i bug him. with all those snakes to care for and all... and i'm just too excited to even breathe! hope the kids don't mind... we are cancelling their birthdays and christmas so mama can get a couple of snakes! :P

Hey my kids have to share their 'playroom'. Why do they need a playroom? They just take over every other room in the house..... :giggle:

So what would you like to see pipping out of those eggs? Pieds? Pastels? Try and make that decision first. Then check out costs and see if it's within your budget, or if you need to sell off a kid or two first. ;)

definitely some pieds but also i'd love some lemon pastels too... which is why i am wondering if i buy both...

but the confusion is with the male... can my normal male breed with these fancy ones and still end up with morphs or do i need to breed morphs together?

(12 yr old boy for sale... not good at chores, hates doing laundry and whines a lot - but other than that... he's GREAT!!!!!!) LOL

Trust me ... call Adam.


And I would get a Pastel Male, and a het pied pair ..... the additional male when buying a het female is a drop in the bucket. Then your het pair can produce a pied for you (eventually), and you can breed your pastel male to normals to make more pastels ....

If you breed a pastel to a 100% het, you will get pastels and normals, all 50% chance het for pied.

Neil

if you want pieds, get the het female first and then breed her to a het male when she is ready.


or if you want a lemon pastel girl, go for her. personally a pastel girl i wouldn't breed to a normal male. at least a het male or another co-dom male.

what morph do you like the best?

i don't think i asked that well.

do i need to get a male and a female 100% het pied to produce pieds? or could i breed the het pied to the lemon pastel and have the possibility to end up with a lemon pied?

my favorite morphs are both the lemons and the pieds... but the pieds are number one on the list.

he has male and female het pieds available... and he also has the lemons available.

You need a het male and a het female to have a chance at a pied.

To make a pastel pied, the"cheapest" way is a pastel/het pied bred to a het pied.

Neil

thanks neil! now i understand :D

I'm gonna take a crack at this using this site http://www.ballpython.ca/genetics.html

Lemon jungle female = codominant so you would get lemon pastel jungles

codominant + recessive you would get lemon jungle pastel 50% possible het pied.

Jeez I think I injured my brain on this one, hopefully if i'm wrong someone will be able to correct me.

Good Luck

There you go .... Vaugn is the man!!!!

Neil

I'd get the het pied pair then I'd get the lemon later on , but hay if you can buy all three there's nothing wrong with that either.

ya i think the het pieds are a definite must have... but the lemon is a "i need to have" - so perhaps i'll get them all :D

just waiting to hear from adam as to what he thinks... and then i need to find a winning lotto ticket to pay for them all LOL

OK! :D

Jungle pastel x normal is 50% jungle pastel and 50% normal. No hets (there is no het pastel, although pastel is the het for the Super Pastel).

See the Dom and Codom always hang me up with the het crap Sorry for the mix up anyone

oh man my head hurts just looking at all of this LOL thankfully my hubby is really intelligent and he gets to learn all this... not me :)

Learn about how all of the different traits work: dominant, co-dominant, and recessive.
