Hello all,
I am new to this forum and would like to introduce myself, my username is Smoothdog89 mostly due to my previous job i had in the military. I am married with 3 children. Personally i have been keeping reptiles since i was 8 yrs old and i am now 30 yrs old. I've always had a love for reptiles in general but i am relatively new to ball pythons so there is a good chance you'll see quite a few posts from me in the future. (my apologies in advance for dumb questions lol) My wife and i are wanting to get into breeding ball pythons. We currently reside in the Dallas/Fort Worth area of Texas. I look forward to becoming more and more involved in this forum. So. i have the chance to get 7 different ball pythons, 3 females and 4 males. At this time i only have enough cash to get 2 possibly 3 just depending. I definitely need more females if we're going to start breeding. Below is what i currently have:
- Champagne Pinstripe Female 682g
- Disco Pastel Male 150g
- Lavender Albino Male 108g
- Mojave Male 96g (Most likely going to sell this one to fund more females)
Now below is what i have the opportunity to get:
1. Female Pastel Lesser Het 100% Genetic Stripe 1300g - $150.00
2. Female Ultrafly 321g - $200.00
3. Female Blue Eyed Lucy 829g - $400.00
4. Male Coral Glow Lace Black Back 442g - $180
5. Male Butter Pastel 821g - $150.00
6. Male Banana Enchi Genetic Stripe GHI 382g - $280.00
7. Male Pastel Orange Ghost 113g - $100.00
Just thought i would try and get some advice from some more experienced breeders on what are good buys, have the most potential, and any that i should try to avoid. I haven't quite decided what morphs i am wanting to breed but i am partial to banana, enchi, pastel, orange dream etc...Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
