What are you plans??
Thank you!

Mmm, I'm not really a huge cream fan. I mean, I don't hate them, but I'd rather make something else. If I came across an inexpensive vanilla, I wouldn't complain, but it's not something I'm actively trying to make. I have two enchis already, so I think I'm ok there for a little while. My dad started a small collection of ball pythons when I got started, and he has a super pastel hidden gene woma that I'm allowed to use for breeding because I take care of her. I like the combos, so I'm excited for her to get to size (I'm thinking soul suckers). I like clowns, but I absolutely adore pieds. I want one so badly. I haven't picked one up yet, but I plan on it! I'm just waiting for the right deal to come along. I like dragonfly pieds and GHI pieds the best, but an albino pied isn't exactly bad either.

Well, I want to eventually put my cinnamon fire female to my GHI het red axanthic male to try for gargoyle GHIs. I'm thinking about breeding the sherbert fly female with the superfly male to try for super pastel super fires (any pinstripe is a bonus). I'm either going to put my enchi lesser pastel to my enchi lesser spider or my GHI for her first year. It just depends. I love BELs and super enchis would be nice, but lesser GHIs are nothing to sneeze at. My mahogany female will probably go with my GHI as I'm not a huge fan of amber pastels. As for some of the snakes that aren't pictured, I'd like to pair my bumblebee het red axanthic or my killer spinner with my superfly for a shot at fire bumblebee combos. My super pastel pinstripe female would probably go with my enchi lesser pastel to try for emperor pins, queen spins, that sort of thing. I might try pairing more than one male to some of my girls to see what happens there.

My plans for my first season consist of successfully hatching babies for the most part. I'd like a little experience before I move into anything bigger. If I manage to get babies, though, I have some ideas. I want to holdback a GHI combo (fire GHI = perfect, but I doubt that would happen in the first season, a lesser GHI would be nice too) female if I get one and make super GHI combos later on. I want to holdback a super fire (preferably with lots of spots) if I get one to put with some enchi, spider and pastel combos. If I paired the enchi lesser pastel with the lesser spider enchi male, I would holdback a BEL or super enchi female. If my killer spinner is up to weight by next year, I would hold back a fire bumblebee or fire killerbee from that clutch. I love enchi spinner blasts, so I want to produce one of those at some point, preferably with fire added to it.

I want to eventually add orange dream to the collection. I feel like it would go well with my fires and I have nothing against dream bees. Piebald is of course something I'm after. I also like leopard (especially when mixed with lesser or mojave) and spotnose. I don't think I could go wrong adding calico or sugar, either. I really like what they do with spider. It really just depends on what kind of deals I can get on quality animals.

How do those plans sound? Any ideas on how to improve them? I'd love to hear your input on them.
