    Then once your done reading and "feel" you have a well rounded education on the topic, no better teacher than experience exists. Then while breeding go back and read all that stuff again and you will start to develop a true understanding of what they were really talking about during the 50% or more of it you felt lost during the first reading of.

    Should take a look at these to understand breeding recessive, codom or dominant.

    http://www.ballpython.ca/what_get/recessive.html
    http://www.ballpython.ca/what_get/co_dominant.html
    http://www.ballpython.ca/what_get/dominant.html

    http://www.ballpython.ca/genetics.html

    After than, you can start by combining different base morph together.
