When you start getting deeper into the morphs, and you start having 3 or more genes in 1 animal, it gets a little confusing lol. Just slowly count out everythingOriginally Posted by zeion97
And to this I say... Genetics is so confusing.
The panda pied is really 3 genes in 1 snake. It's a super black pastel (black pastel x black pastel), as well as a pied. The pied is recessive however so both parents will also need to have the pied gene in them, whether it's a visual or if it's "heterozygous" or "het" for short.
You can start from scratch, you can invest in a tiny headstart, or you can dish out a bit of cash to have a decent headstart. No matter which route you take, you're going to be waiting at LEAST 2 years to really start getting into the project lol. The bees are only 2 genes (pastel x spider). Pastels and spiders aren't that expensive, however, neither are bees ;p. You can get a great looking pastel female for 130 - 200 and a spider male for about the same price as the pastel female. If you just want a bee, you can spend 400 - 600 for one ^_^
Here's a sweet link!

EDIT:
Also to the OP, I'm personally not really into the cinny stuff, but the black pastel is one of the coolest dark morphs IMO. Some people think they are the same morph, and some people will say they are different. You can make up your own mind. Another cool website is http://www.worldofballpythons.com/
At the top, there's a "morph list". Click that and go to "The big morph list" and you can actually SEARCH for a particular morph that you want to see combos of! In your case, you can type in "Cinnamon" or "Black Pastel" and look for stuff that stands out to you! When you click it, you'll be brought to a page with a picture of the morph, and on the left side of the page will be the ingredients for that morph and which one is dom/co-dom/recessive! Be careful though because that website can suck hours away from your day >_>.... stupid addicting morphs T.T XD
