    What are you interested in making? I'd look through World of Ball Pythons and figure out which morphs YOU like and want to produce and then find the appropriate female. It also depends on what your price range is.

    Depends on what YOU like, what your budget is, whether you want to work on long term projects that might not pay off right away (Recesive projects) etc.

    There are plenty of good choices for Bees but to narrow it down having an idea of your budget will help a lot.

    It does depend on your budget and what you want to produce, there are a lot of options.

    Pastel could give you killerbees
    Lesser/Butter could give you Queenbees
    Enchi could give you stinging bumble bee
    etc...

    thanks - budget is

    budget is under $600 - - - - personal likes, hmm? - not crazy about enchi's - was thinking about pastel - love anything pewter - thanks for taking time to respond - advice considering what i've shared on this post - not patient enough probably to wait on recessives

    In the $600 range there are a few things you can consider that have great potential with a male Bee, Lesser, Pinstripe (You could actually get both), Lemon Blast (to try to hit on Spinner Blast and Super Spinner Blast), Super Pastel etc

    If you like pastels I'd find the largest "nicest" pastel female you can and then they'll be ready to breed in the 2012/2013 season assuming you are ready

    I don't know what average prices are off the top of my head but if you could get a pastel/something else girl in your price range that'd be good to create a variety of morphs in your clutch. Just a thought.

    and your bumble is really cute!!
