OK I have a choice between two females here. One is a pastel, around 3 to 3.5 feet and ~700 grams. She is priced at $200. Also there is a spider which is larger, around 4 feet, priced at $300. Not sure the weight on her but she is roughly the size of my Kay who has produced 5 clutches for me, so safe to say she's breeding size now.



I'm leaning in the direction of the pastel, as it just seems more attractive to me (the camera doesn't really pick up her color that well). But I'd have to wait to breed her until next year or potentially even the year after. The spider would breed now but the price is higher, and she doesn't do quite as much for me visually.

Given that I have all normals (see my collection here http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...hs-I-have-pics), which do you think would be better as far as producing some interesting babies? I know the genetics of pastels, but not so much on spiders.

Thanks in advance......
