Looking for Recommendations....

I currently have a male pastel (pictured below). I have kept snakes all of my life, but I am relatively new to the BP and the many fascinating morphs that can be produced....therefore if my question is stupid or repetitive I apologize in advance. I have a spare enclosure so I was thinking about getting another BP. I have a fairly good understanding of the genetics and realize that the pastel morph is a co-dominant trait, which limits the possibilities. Basically, I want some opinions on what morph I should get that can produce some interesting offspring. My budget is by no means unlimited, so take that into consideration in your responses. My wife would kill me if I spent $1,000 on a snake. I am looking at this as a hobby, not a business. Thanks!!!

Some affordable choices that would make some great combos would be Cinny, Black Pastel, Spider, Pinstripe.

I'm sorry to plead complete ignorance, but what would be the results of those crosses?

I wouldn't rule out another Pastel. Supers can be very attractive snakes. All the ones Deb mentioned would be good too.

Pewters, black Pewters, Bumblebees, and Lemon Blast.

Cinny X Pastel would give you Pastel, Normal, Cinnies , Pewter

Black Pastel X Pastel would give you Pastel, Normal, Black Pastel , Pewter

Spider X Pastel would give you Pastel, Spider, Normals, Bumblebee

Pinstripe X Pastel would give you Pastel. Pinstripe, Normal, Lemon Blast

THis will give you an idea of some different morph and combos http://www.newenglandreptile.com/ner...ollection.html

Pastel X Cinnamon or Black Pastel = Pewters
Pastel X Spider = Bumblebees
Pastel X Pinstripe =Lemon Blasts
Pastel x Pastel = Super Pastels
Pastel x Lesser Platinum = Pastel Lessers
Pastel x Fire = FireFly
There`s TONS you can do with pastels, but here are several relatively inexpensive options for you to contemplate.
I have pictures of most of these morphs on my website if you`d like to see the end results.
