    Breeding ball python outcomes

    What will be produced if I breed a Norma male to a pinstripe female ball python? Also, a normal male to a spider female! Thanks in advance!

    Each egg would have a 50% chance of being either a pin or a spider, but why would you breed a normal male to a morph female???

    could be the only male he has?

    normal male to pinstripe female would get you 50% normal, 50% pinstripe
    same with normal male to spider female, you'd get 50% normal, 50% spider!

    you should buy a morph male, they are usually very inexpensive, to breed to the spider/pin females!

    I could see breeding a normal male to a morph female.

    For instance wouldn't breeding my normal male to mojave female generate each egg having 50% chance of being a mojave? Then breed the mojave back to the mother for BELs?

    Sorry, still kinda new into the whole figuring out breeding combos thing...

    Yup!
    Normal to mojave would give you 50% mojave, 50% normal, then if you got a male mojo you could breed him back to your female mojo! then get a nice BEL

    A lot of people think breeding anything to a normal is lame, but IMO it's just as good

    I'll be breeding my male lesser to my normal female this year to get some more lessers!

    he could get a proven breeder pastel male for under 200, or atleast a yearling that could be ready to breed soon, then you expand what you could produce by alot. pin x pastel = 25% lemon blast spider x pastel = 25% bumblebee.

    haha I think I'm starting to get the hang of it... I might pick up a male lesser though and try going lesser x mojave for BEL??? Lol

    I do wanna breed my normal male to something though..

    That's a great idea and a male lesser wouldn't be too expensive, you would get 25% normal, 25% mojave, 25% lesser, and 25% BEL

    Yup
    I'm sure you'll get the hang on genetics pretty quick, you've got a good start.
    goodluck with the breeding!
