    First breed attempt.

    Hi, new to this forum but I've had snakes for a long time now. I have a nominal female (prob she has sth else because she is pretty light color) (she's shedding btw) and lesserbee male. Any comments, guesses, suggestions and recommendations are welcome.

    what where you trying to do with them??
    You will undoubtedly just be splitting genes from your male –lesserbee = maybe 25% normal, 50%lesser, and 50%spiders out of it… (someone correct me if I am wrong – I am sure I am in the ball park lol)…
    I mean if you have ppl who will give them good homes or you just want to keep them... I’m not sure what you’re asking here?
    Are you trying to prove out your male’s genetics? There are more profitable ways than mating to a normal – nothing wrong with it tho (just for desirability purposes

    why not wait till you get a lesser female and aim for a BEL (this is my 2nd-3rdx suggesting BELs for ppl lol today), maybe hit some combos, until u need to breed the female, or try a Mojave with her, or pastel males if you believe her to be expressing some interesting patterns- or YB, but I do not see much in her- try posting some more pics of her maybe someone with more experience can help you out..

    but if you are unsure of how to prepare for breeding, I found this to be very insightful.. good luck ..

    I second this. But by all means am not judging your decision. Breed what you want to breed.
