    if it was you, what road would you take?

    so in january im going to the reptile expo in pomona, cali,

    im taking $1000.00 to buy what ever i want.

    now i want to get a (or few) females.

    now one thing is i really want a pin. so thats a little less than 300 gone.
    so i got 700-750 to work with.

    i have a 1000gram male pastel at home and a 150 gram butter male.
    a bumble bee female 300grams+ and a normal female 1500grams+

    now i was thinking of going for a few lower cost morphs.

    now i also like enchi's, and was thinking woma.

    and obviously if i could find a nice butter/lesser im probably going to.

    but all in the poll will be females to breed to my butter and pastel males. my butter obviously next season.

    but im hoping to find some larger females to have as breeders next season. i know i probably wont find any morphs at larger sizes but, im sure
    that i'll find some nice normals or one base morph like a pastel female tipping the scales.

    the poll confuses me.

    Wait. So you've already got male butter and a pastel, and you're definitely picking up a pinstripe... female?

    I'd get a pinstripe female and a mojave female. Tough to beat a nice lemon blast or butter pin, and a BEL is worth its weight in gold.

    You should still have money left at that point. There's certainly nothing wrong with a couple of big normal girls. If you want a morph, I the enchi will produce the most spectacular results with both butters & pastels.

    I don't think I'd go recessive. Not unless you have another $1k you specifically want to dedicate to a trio, and a particular project you have in mind.

    yeah i really aggree with the mojo & pin.
    and yes i have a male pastel and butter.
    and i am deffinately getting a female pin.
    i was thinking of adding the mojo and albino to my mix.
    i just want the albino for personal keeper.

    but butter to mojo, pin, albino.
    possible BEL.
    mojo's
    butters
    im not sure if kingpins in the mix. butter/pin.
    more pin's. more butters.
    100% het. butters & normals.

    thats a nice bunch.
    pastel to mojo, pin, albino.
    pastaves
    mojo's
    pastels,
    lemon blasts
    pin's
    pastels,
    100% het. pastels & normals.

    sound good too. any one else's opinions greatly appreciated.
    and i deffinately want a couple normal females to breed next season. but normals are a dime a dozen and i rarley have a chance at aquiring more than one morph
    at a time.

    Although, super pastels have came down quite a bit in price and are a weapon in anyones collection. it all depends on what your considering on making in the future

    Financially and strategically I don't think an albino is the best use of your $$$? Also, I'm biased because I just don't see the big deal with pastel albinos....

    But okay, if you pick up the pin and the mojo, at that point you'll already be in a really strong position. And at that point if you want to pick up an albino because you just plain-old want one, well, I gotta respect that.

    If it were me id def say get that pin girl, mojo girl, and a cinnamom or black pastel girl. With the boys you have now I think all 3 of those would go well with what you already have. Also id say if you want the albinos to just get a het girl for now to start raising up. Get a head start on the female for when you add your boy, or breed him to the bee to get pastel, spider, and bee's all het for bino and hope for a boy.
