    Yes I would definitely wait a while before breeding. Make sure your female is at least 2 years old and 1500g in weight.

    As far as the het pastel goes. Some breeders will try and convince you the snake is het for spider or het for pastel. There was even the time my friend called me from the pet store she worked in because a "guy who breeds ball pythons" came into the store and told them the snake in the display was a pastel, not a normal. I went to go check it out and that snake was as normal as normal got. So be careful when you purchase a morph and make sure it is coming from a reputable breeder.

    Het pieds have belly markers most call "train tracks", not all het pieds have the tracks though.

    There are a few markers that some hets have. Not all hets will have them and some non-hets have them. My 100% heterozygous for pied normal male has pied markers.
