    Best Pairing to Buy

    What does everyone think would be the better pairing to buy im looking at either
    Pastels
    Mojos
    100% Het Albinos
    Pastel and Spider

    I'm looking to buy one of these 4 pairings from Royal Constrictor Designs and I'm leaning towards the Pastel and Spider.

    I currently have a Normal Female and a Male Cinny that i think would match up nicely with any of these pairings in the future and hopefully if i can afford it all of these pairings will be in my collection in the future.

    I also went with the spider pastel combo, they soooo beat the prices in the local market and the combinations between the 2 are great plus i also have a normal and a pied to work with.

    Spider X Pastel will give you the best odds, plus then if you get bee's you can work from there. But a pair of mojos are always nice because there's a chance for BEL's. Or you could also get a Mojo and a Lesser. That way you'll get lessers, mojos, BEL's and normals. Or you can get another Cinny, that could always be nice. Its up to you. I was in the same predicament as you and I personally went with the Lesser X Mojave pair.

    Since you have a male cinny I would def. get a female pastel. That way you can try to make pewters. If you do get a female pewter out of that bunch you can breed it back to the male cinny and try for super cinnys! Thats the way I would go honestly. BELs everyone and their mother are breeding them, they are going to drop in the market pretty quick.

    You can get a male spider and breed it to your pastel and get bees.

    I personally going the vanilla route. Seems like its going to be one of the next BEL from what I'm hearing and seeing. Vanilla pastels are awesome and the super vanilla is way crazy. I saw it at the Daytona show, it wasn't for sale but mad beautiful.

    Re: Best Pairing to Buy

    the Lesser x mojave definitely would be better as far as multiple out comes i agree and i also do agree that everyone is makin the bel or tryin to right now i still want to make my own just so i can say i did it lol

    the pastel x spider im struggling to decide the sexes because even though getting pewters and super cinnys is a dream of mine im also very interested in gettin cinny spiders

    hmm which would be better right now cinny spider and bumble bees or pewters and bumble bees hmmmmmm tough decision with the money from the cinny spider i can buy another pairing with opposite sexes then start workin towards my super cinnys and pewters hmmmm require much thought this will

    Pastels are mad inexpensive, spiders are right along there. Depends if you want to spend between 85-100 for a pastel or 200-250 for a spider. I dunno your budget. Also, depends what you plan on doing with the babies. I would would strongly think about a plan first. If you plan on selling the hatchlings, I think that the better sell would be pewters. Although a cinny spider would do well too, I just don't know which one exactly will appeal more to the market or which one will give you the biggest payout.

    If you do the spider route, you can make a cinny spider and breed it back to your cinny to make super cinnys. Which by the way I noticed that not a lot of ppl have touched on that market ;-) It just depends what snake you prefer to look at for the next six years. lol. A cinny spider or a pewter. lol

    Believe me I'm on the road of making my own BEL too, I have a lesser platinum female on hold at my distributor. I will get the male later on down the road once shes about 2. But the market will drop on the value of the BEL by then I'm sure!

    i would love to look at cinny spiders pewters super cinnys and bumble bee for the next 6 years lol i love cinnamon morphs and spider morphs and i hope that i can get a bumble bee and a cinnabee or cinny spider (watever it is called) out of this breeding cuz i plan on breeding both the cinny and pastel to that girl spider with hopes of some mixed clutch i know this limits my chances of one or the other but it also gives me more than just those morphs

    Re: Best Pairing to Buy

    since your just starting with getting your collection started I think the pastel spider route is your best bet. Not only are they going to be some of the cheaper snakes, they are also base morphs and you will get all morphs when breeding them together. And then if you get your bee you can sell the mom and dad off and just have the 1 mouth to feed as well, but still the double deadly genes. I have a pair of het albinos and het pieds and I am excited to get an albino and a pied, but im not so excited with having to deal with the 66% het off springs and having to sell them off. But its really up to you, your hobby, your collection and your decision... just my 2 cents

    i like wat u said about the sellin mom and dad after but wat if (big wat if) this pairing of pastel x spider that i get does nothing but pump out bumble bees like a full clutch of bumble bees would u then keep the mom and dad or sell them off and remember thats a BIG WAT IF cuz i dont think that can happen itd be amazing if it did though lol

    i also want to get into the hets i know its a pain but its exciting for me cuz i really want to make my own pied not buy one same with albino if i could make my own panda pied thatd be amazing but many years from now

    Re: Best Pairing to Buy

    With genetics its pretty much hit and miss... so if you have a pastel and spider that produce all bees one year you might get all pastels the next... so I would say if they happen still keep a bee and sell the parents... I know if you have a breedable spider female you could easily get 600-800 for her... and I agree about producing your own albinos and pied... I too have sets of hets for both... and can't wait to breed them... hope this helps
