    I did a yb male and a honeybee male to the same girl this year. Not something I would recommend (mixing recessive with anything else) but I did know what the outcome I could expect from the pairing before hand. I changed my mind mid season and when my yb went off feed decided to try for spiders het hypo instead. Looks like the yb got it done, but it was exciting to see what hatched out. I was one female short and I had 3 untried males so everyone got to practice, this year everyone gets their own girl though = ). However, no one but my double het albino pied got to touch my het pied girl, I was not messing with her!

    I do multiple males only with the normal and codom females... But not only does it insure the job gets done but it makes it Xmas in the summer for me. It's all in fun so why not make things a surprise.

    I refuse to breed a "junkier" third-string male to get junky babies just to get babies.
    I suggest you keep your know-nothing bottom of the shelf comments to yourself.

    You don't know me, and you don't know my snakes. I don't have any "junky third string males" for your information, looser. All of my males are top quality examples of their morph, the best I could find. So don't you dare suggest that just because I don't care if I get an exceptional Pastave, an exceptional Vanilla Mojave, or an exceptional Savannah that I'm breeding "just to make junky babies" you twirp.

    My fire babies are some of the brightest anyone has ever seen. My vanillas are super bright and clean. And my husbands female produced not only a beautiful Lesser girl but a stunning Woma girl, there is nothing third string about those babies. Maybe his pastel isn't something to write home about, but now we know she doesn't make the best pastels so we know not to pair her to pastel in the future.

    Of course there are plenty of people out there who breed whatever to whatever just to make babies no matter the quality, but don't blanket statement that only newbies and junk breeders pair more than one male to a female.

    This years breeding was all four females ran through all four males. I'm in it just to have a little fun right now. The upcoming season is a different story, though. One male for four females:
