    Re: PythonKings - fun BP breeding game!

    Hi,

    I am ignoring the money side of it as long as I can buy more tank space as needed.

    Trying to get the quality of everything as high as I can but its slow going - still haven't quite managed to burst through the 400 mark.

    Still only level 23 though so I suppose I have time - can't wait to make top notch axanthic killer bees.

    That's what I'm doing now - dumping the lower quality animals and buying higher quality pairs on the market to improve my stock. I've got high 300's axanthics and snows now - I'm having to build my pieds up myself, because no one seems to be selling them. Then there are the outrageous prices of 10M or more for some snakes.

    Re: PythonKings - fun BP breeding game!

    Hi,

    Yeah I saw those prices.

    I could only really find axanthics at the higher quality so am building them up while trying to use het-ax to ax pairings to give me higher normals I can use for building up everything else.

    Well that's the plan but still mainly doing the axanthics at the moment too.

    Slow going though.

    I just sell mine rather than using the market - is that a good idea or should I just post them up before I go to bed or something?

    At this point, what you sell them for doesn't change your level - only breeding them does. I've set my limit at 300 snakes, which can still be a bit unmanageable.

    My strategy is generally to sell off the lower quality animals out of each breeding through the snake room to free up room to breed my higher quality animals. I generally sell all but 8 pairs of each through that method and start breeding one or two pairs of each kind until I'm full again, and sell off just bred ("not ready") animals, because their offspring will generally be higher quality than they are, through the snake room.

    Then I usually have four or five pairs of each that I don't breed that I sell through the market. I don't usually pay attention to what others are doing - I sell for about 10 to 20 percent more than the value.

    And then I forget about them until the eggs hatch and are ready to breed and then I generally sell any that haven't sold in the market through the snake room.

    That's just how I do it. Before I breed again, I do skim through the market to see if there are any higher quality animals than what I have, even if it's in the 200's, but higher than what I have.

    One trick on the market - if you're fast enough - enter prices on five consecutive snakes and quickly hit the market button for each one. You can get five or six up on the market at the same time instead of one at a time.

    Re: PythonKings - fun BP breeding game!

    question.. has anyone hatched a clown or het clown or a cinnie or black pastel or ghosts? I just keep seeing pastels, lemon pastels, pieds, spiders, axan, yellowbelly's... are the choices just limited to these choices?

    Re: PythonKings - fun BP breeding game!

    this is really addicting...
    of course, i don't know much about ball python morphs, so i'm just guessing with pairings, and hoping i get something interesting... learning a bit from it, though...
    so far, at level 22, i'm making the most money from my piebald super lemons. not using the market much, it takes too long to list each one individually, and i'm making plenty as it is just selling them normally...

    Re: PythonKings - fun BP breeding game!

    Yeah I think it's the basic morphs there now. I have not seen anything new except for the Fire's and thats about it!

    I'm not going to lie, I've put some snakes on the Market for $20 Million for shoots and giggles and people buy them. lol
