At the end off the day its like rolling the dice in Vegas and that is if you get eggs. I remember one season Graziani had 100 females that didn't go!

It took me 19 eggs from 3 different clutches to hit on a bumble bee that should have been 1 in 4 odds. That of course doesn't count the females that never even produced eggs.

You mentioned the BEL and Super Enchi, to breed them together you would have had to have bought them both several years ago when the price for either one of them would cost you way more than the combo you produced today and then someone will ask you why is it so much??
No your right I havnt bred very long or at all for that matter but Im not necessarily a noob either. I have had snakes for a long time but I just started trying last year to breed them and yes this is going on the fourth year. I was just using 2 supers as an example I wasnt talking a real situation. It just seems like everyone is always hitting on something and their is no shortage on the more popular combos so someone's hitting the odds. And that is crazy, 100 females and no go. Doesnt make me feel too good about my odds this year, lol, thanks.
