If they're for a breeding project and are looking to buy babies, then I recommend you just buy females now and get the male next year.
It takes at least 2 years for the females and 1 year for males to reach sexual maturity. You can always get the male next year, that way all your snakes will be ready to breed at the same time. Plus the male price will probably go down then and you can save space, time, and money not housing that extra male this year.

That was just a suggestion. To buy that extra male now saves you money in the intial cost. But if you buy him, you have to feed, house, and clean after him, which in the long run adds up too. Things to think about.
In the end, it's your decision and what you think is best for you.
