    What should be next?

    I recently aquired a 2011 female spider & I was showing my wife all the possibilities of breeding morphs. She suggested we should grab another female then in a year or so grab a male for both. I was thinking a mojave female & later get a lesser male.

    My wife actually loves the bumblebee & I found one at the top of our range. Lesser to bumblebee could have a nice ending as well.

    Not really sure what to do.. What would you all suggest or do if it were you? Right now I am looking to spend $500 or less on another female.

    Thanks for all your help in advance

    If it was me I would get a female Pin and a Female Mojave and than in about a year a male Pastel Lesser.

    It sounds like your plans are about like mine...2 females and 1 male. My females are a 2010 normal and 2011 reduced pattern pinstripe and the male is a 2011 bumblebee. Going to breed the normal and bumblebee in 2012 and then the pinstripe and bumblebee in 2013 as long as everyone is up to size. I think your combo sounds good though, should make some awesome babies!

    Not sure about the other female, but you could get a pastel male for the spider and make some bees.
    Can't stop with just one!

    This is a great suggestion but I would probably lean more towards the pin than the mojave. If you go with the Mojave to Pastel Lesser you're not going to know if any BEL you produce are pastel BELs.

    There are a lot of cool co-dom/dom morphs out there. I would get a Mojave female and a Lemon Blast male. Then you could produce some Spinner Blasts and Jigsaw Blasts which are super cool. Whatever you decide to do, you are going to get the best bang for your buck by getting a double co-dom/dom male.

    Thanks all for the replies! There are so many wonderful possibilities that it is overwhelming to decide to pick just one. I have been given a strick 3 bp limit so I just want to make sure I get the most out of it.

    Ha ha ha, let's see how long that lasts. I too would go with a Bumblebee and Pastel as the next two. Although, a Lesser would be nice as well. Of course a Pin Stripe could give you some interesting combinations. Uh oh, over the three snake limit. See how it goes.

    lol ya that is the delima! If it's not one thing it's another... At least right now it's just deciding on which morph to get.
