What would you try

[Meltdown Morphs]

So I have my guy Swirly here He's a Ltc really fun blackback that absolutely refuses to sit still to take pics [my apologies for the fuzziness], I'm looking to prove him out some day but I'm still undecided on what I would breed him to.I'm aiming to purchace a breedersize female for him so when ever he decides he's ready he can get busy I have been leaning toward a pastel..or a yellowbelly, but I want to know what some of you would breed him to if you had him.

Het Red Axanthic female

looks like a het red maybe

I think you have somethimg other than a black back. He has Het Red markers on him. Check the identification guide on the site here. This is just my opinion though. I can't really tell from the pics, I just see the outlining of the alien heads and the flames.

I found the link to the guide.....http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=45855

That is very Het Red to me.

I would do Het Red to prove him out.

Yea he's got tons of the 'squiggles' but my picture taking skills arent best especially with one who won't sit still for anything I actually havent seen any breeder sized het reds out there but I also wanted to use a morph that I would be able to tell if -his- looks passed or not.. If I bred him to a het red....and no Red Axans were made how would I tell any of the babies apart cause they might all be blackbacks, in which I probably couldnt tell if they got it from the mom or the dad.

I just hatched two clutches full of het reds, and that is without a doubt a het red. Like others said get a het red female and make some red axanthics. Did you pay for a normal?

No, I got him as a LTC Import from J&J he hasn't been bred before, thats why I'm not really wanting to breed him into a morph that already looks like him, like I said.....say I bred him to a het red but made no Reds..then what? I have a clutch of babies I possibly couldn't identify one line from the other...

Than you need two girls. One very pretty normal and then get a breeder het red. Than you'll be able to see in the first year if he really is a het red, and also you get babies that you can tell who the sire/dam is. Breeder normals are pretty easy to come by.... ... thats what I'd do at least.
