Choosing a balll pyton

[reptilesbeforemammal]

If I had 300 to spend on a morph today I would pick up a nice female fire. If you are just starting out, start with females, get a male in a couple years. Look ahead at your dream snake (high price is okay) and buy a nice example of what will make that possible one day. For example if you love the way BELs look, buy yourself a nice female mojave, lesser, butter, or het Russo. If you like the looks of a super blast, a nice pinstripe or pastel is the way to go. Perhaps you like the looks of a albino spider? Whatever you like get a female that will contribute. check out world of ball pythons.

Why female I must ask.
I'm not going to get into breeding, I just want a buddy to hang out with during movies and all that jazz.
Why females over males?
Fire's are pretty as all hell though.

I also love pastels.
