My somewhat firm list...
Okay okay so I won't be getting any bps till next summer most likely, since I still live with my mum and she is deathly afraid of the girth on bps so despite many fights about it I have given into her request and am not getting any till I move out. HOWEVER! that doesn't mean I can't decide before hand what I want to get and draw plans for my rack setup, etc. Well after much thought, reading, and question asking I think I have my first snakes lined up, I most likely won't be able to buy all these at once but I should have close to $1,600-1,700 saved for some snakes by next summer. Here is What I'm planning to get and planning to accomplish.
1.1 pastel (aiming for supers)
1.1 cinnamons (aiming for super cinnys and pewters with my pastels)
1.1 lessers (BEL in the making...)
0.1 mojave (to switch up the BEL project)
0.1 pinstripe (just a cool thing to have...pewter pins anyone??)
And lastly
0.1 bumblebee (to get a spider and make some lesser/killer bees)
So yeah that's what I'm looking at right now. Things could change but.I'm pretty set on that..opinions anyone? Also I'm not sure a pewter pin is the right term....for the pewter x pin combo so of someone could clear that up for me that Would be great.

Seems like a pretty good list, but I would probably swap the lesser and pastel male out for a pastel lesser male, or go with a pewter male instead of the cinny and pastel male. If you buy hatchlings, start with the females, they take longer to grow up.

A pastel lesser/ pewter male will still produce super pastel and super cinnys when bred to a pastel/cinny female right? And I was planning on getting a adult female pastel and cinny. I don't really want To wait a couple years for breeding.

It will, but you get the added bonus of possibly having the other gene as well. Pastel Lesser to Pastel will give you a shot at a Super Pastel Lesser, Pastel Lesser and Super Pastel.
Pewter to cinny will give you a shot at silver bullets, pewters and super cinnies.
Pewter to pastel will give you a shot at super pastels, pewters and sterlings.
Pastel Lesser to Lesser will give you a shot at Pastel BEL, BEL and Pastel Lessers.
Seems like a win to me.

Yep, double genes will get you further faster but they do cost more up front. I like the revised list.
With the pin, you can do your lesser pastel x pin and get kingpins and Emporer pins and lemon blasts.

You took your bee off. I would add her back on. Get your spider and such, plus then you can make some awesome morphs. Your lesser pastel x bee = queen bee or killerqueens.

I would highly recommend not buying any males until your females gain a decent amount of weight. You can save a lot of money by doing so. Some males can be ready to breed within a year, females at least 3 years to breed. I would take off all single gene males. One male can easily breed multiple females, as stated above you can end up with 3 or 4 genes hatchlings instead of double gene animals.
I like the list! Also to save more money try to buy all or most of your females in a package from a single breeder, most are willing to give a nice discount from selling them as a package.
