As a fairly new BP breeder, it took me awhile to figure out where i want to go with my breeding. At first, just like many other BP breeders, i wanted multiple gene animals thus giving me more options to immediately increase my genetic diversity in my collection. But that was a tricky path for a 19 year old college student working full time trying to not blow through all my money on ball pythons. At first i decided to just try to find the cheapest multiple gene balls that i could find. Eventually I had a cheap mojave female that was a poor example of the mojave morph, I had a cheap as dirt browned out bumblebee, and i had what was supposed to be a cinny but if it was then it didnt have any great attributes of the cinnamon morph. So i came to the point where i decided to change my direction as a breeder. By doing this, i had to give up some of my higher quality morphs that i was planning on keeping. But i am finally to the point now where i can feel good about the quality of the morphs in my current collection. My collection goes as follows:
1.0 Super Pastel
1.0 Pewter
1.0 Lesser
1.0 Yellowbelly
0.1 Lemonblast
0.1 Vanilla
0.1 Cinny
0.1 Yellowbelly
I just felt like sharing my experience because i think that is what is the difference between the Ralph Davis', Greg Grazianis', and Mike Wilbanks', and the breeders who are just trying to get the newest morph. Genetic Quality is going to prevail in the BP industry and this should be something every breeder strives for. Instead of just trying to be the first one to find a morph or the fastest way to make a quick buck. Thanks for reading, if you want some pics, i have some on my profile but a lot of them are old. I will post some of my current collection if your interested.
