If you had to choose 3 Ball Python morphs to start with...

[cinner]

a male lesser, a female pastel and a female ghost

[The Mad Baller]

Well I would go with all females, as you can pick up a 2 gene male a year later for most likely cheaper than the current price now. I'd get a good quality female Lesser, female Enchi, and try to fit in a 2 gene female like a Bumblebee, pastel yellowbelly, or Lemonblast..

You beat me to it. Buy all females. You are not sure if you want to breed or not but if you decide in the future you can add a male. Two or three years from now when your females are ready you will get a lot more male for your money because prices come down. If you never decide to breed females will be worth a lot more if you ever sell.

I get all females and get my male later on like couple others said I thinkI go after snakes that are at least het or possible het while I was picking out, I grab at least mojave, lesser, bee and or cinny. that are all het either pied or albino ( i got a mojave that possible het pied(no paper work) to prove out in a couple years now) but she was only 200 and cheapest ( of any the bell line morphs at hamburg last year)
and since your not buying cages and such looking at about 333 per snake and could adjust that as you pick up a cheaper snake.
