    Breeding.

    Ok guy's I have a normal female ready to breed, my buddy just bought a male fire will be ready to breed next year. What I was wondering is I really want to shoot for a super fire. Will it be bad if I get a female in the clutch and breed her back to the male when the time comes? a guy I was talking to said he does not breed any related snakes. Is it bad to do so? If so, how is it people produce new morphs without breeding back?

    Its OK to breed related snakes. That's how the first albinos were born and lots of other ball pythons.

    That is what I figured. Every spider came from the first spider or I would assume? As long as you throw new ginetics in their every now and then I should be OK?

    Line breeding is the way weve gotten so many morphs now. Do it I just think its not recommended to do it over and over and over again.

    Re: Breeding.

    Should be no problem. A lot of morphs are to thank for line breeding. Good luck!
