I've decided to want to breed reptiles and my focus will be on ball pythons. Currently I have an '07 normal female, '07 100% het pied normal male, '07 pastel male, and an '07 pastel female. I am looking to add some more snakes to my collection this year. Currently I am talking with someone about getting two normal females that will be breedable next season. But I also want to get some hets or visable morphs. I would like to get a spider (not sure if male or female), mojave (not sure if male or female), yellowbelly (male) and a pair of 100% het albino normals.

When I was talking to the guy at the store where we get our feeders, (Off the Ark) he said that once all the breeders are hatching out morphs, they might be getting some morphs into the store from local breeders and such. Now, I was already thinking of getting the snakes from actual breeders like 8Ball.

Would you go with the store or a breeder? I bet the majority of you will probably pick breeder, but I was just checking to see what you would do. Most likely I will go with getting them ALL from the breeders themselves rather than buying from the store.
