    A price range would help us give you a decent range of morphs

    I was going to say enchi something but most two genes are running more than $500. I would save up some more and go for an enchi fire or something with enchi in it. Either way get a 2 gene male and not a super pastel.

    I think a Spider Mojave or Bumblebee Males could be real nice with those ladies. I'm not sure but one male to three females might lessen your chances for an ovy. Might need two males to really "get the job done" One might get overworked.

    A fire yellowbelly would be perfect but a firefly would be nice too...

    Re: first time breeder need help!!!

    The best advice I can give you is to go on World of Ball Pythons and "play around". Ive spent many hours at a time on there, falling in love with some of the gorgeous morphs on there. It was there that helped me decide what morph to invest in next based on what me and my husband have in our collection, and what we wanted to produce in the future.
