    Prices on Ball Pythons are plummeting. Your best bet is to find some genes that you like AND will be easier to sell. Recessive Recessive Recessive...Need I say more. Bananas went from 5k to $300 in one year. Next year they will be under $100. Co-dom combos are commonly hitting 5+ genes..it's almost silly. Here are a few that I think are both a good investment and visually appealing.

    Recessive:
    Hypo/Ghost - They make almost everything better IMO.
    Pied - Still probably the biggest wow factor to a snake newb. so they will always sell.
    Albino - Match with a gene that will bring out the contrast like a leopard or black pastel.

    Co-dom:
    Leopard: These are hot right now and reasonably priced.
    Lesser: Still a fav of mine. combine it with a leopard.
    fire: midas well throw some fire on any combo.

    Avoid:
    Spider: with the wobble and the fact that these were completely over produced I wouldn't bother.
    Champagne: I even own a mimosa, which i think is one of the only appealing champagne combos.
    Banana: every body and their whole damn family got a banana this year and are sticking them to all their females

    I have ton's more opinions, but these are a few

    Banana's under 100 next year? NEVER gonna happen. You can't find a female for under 1k$

    Re: Must have morphs?

    I've been wondering the same thing; I'm coming back from the hobby since 2008 and it's amazing how things have changed. I have been relentlessly researching, trying to figure out what's in, what's out ... but I can't keep up. I see people hatching things out that they don't even know what they are! Therefore, I'm just going with whatever happens, happens lol.

    I picked up an emperor pin, because she's fabulous. Then I picked up calibee het ghost, because he's fabulous. I will pick up some fabulous ghost female stuff and everything will be just fabulous because I like my snakes!

    You see it, you must have it ... it's a must have morph

    Honestly depends on what you like. Mine are Spider, Pastel, Fire, Pinstripe, Lesser. You can make some awesome stuff with that alone.
