    Hi,

    I'm not sure on what specific morphs to suggest - but having whichever one you buy being het for albino seems a good idea in terms of future planning.

    Any co-doms or doms you like both the pastel versions and the albino versions?

    I was thinking pinstripe het albino male would fit in nicely but I also like black pewters and black pastel albinos so a black pastel het albino male would also sound good to me.

    Or, if snows float your boat and you are in no rush - an axanthic bumblebee male would give you killerbees/ bumblebees/ pastels het ax, dual het bumblebees and dual hets.

    The world's your aardvark really.

    Depending on what you have to spend. If I was you and didn't have much to spend I would get a pastel male and a spider male. Go for super pastels and bees. Thats just me though. They would catch a decent price and you could hold back a super pastel female and breed it to a bee and make even more.

    I am going to go with the standard answer of..... get what you like.....

    If you like bees get a bee for the pastels..... If you like blasts, well they go good with pastels too..... I don't like pewters, but if you do then get a cinny or black pastel and have fun. Also, the pastel pied and pied albino projects are just 1 snake away for you as well as the albino and pastel clowns.

    Dude you got 3 female pastels get a spider and get some bees, personally bees are my favorite morph out of all ball pythons. or if you can offerd it buy a spinner and try for a spinner blast, eveything depends on your price range =D

    You have a great recessive gene and a great co-dom gene to work with there. Were you at all interested in combining them? Or were these separate projects?

    Id take a gander at some of the great combos that are out there and see what you like. Then focus on trying to achieve/produce that. For example I love pewters, but I don't like albino pins. That would help dictate what I get.

    How old are the snakes you have right now?

    For me, when thinking about adding males, I now look at the age of the females I would like to breed them to. Males are generally easier to acquire and cheaper to get as well. If my females were '09s I would not grab a male so soon. You'd likely be paying more for the snake then you would when the time comes when you actually need him and you'd also be spending the money on housing him in the interim... The only way I'd consider it is if one popped up that I found especially stunning that was also at a very affordable price point.

    Budget would also dictate what you get, obviously.
