    Impressive collection you have there.

    I really like your Mahogany and Cinnamon Fire.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    I do want to suggest NOT making BELs that possibly have other genes. Imagine you produce 4 of them, and you want to only keep a pair or whatever, it's going to feel rough trying to sell one as a 2-gene instead of a 3 or 4 gene it COULD be .

    I thought I wouldn't really care either, but now it's rough advertising these potentially worlds firsts combos for less than what they could potentially be lol. Just food for thought. I came at it with the same exact mentality. You could look through my older threads regarding my plans haha, it's always in the following order:
    1 - I want babies!
    2 - I want cool combos
    Haha, I made sure to get at least some idea of what I wanted to do early on. Seems fairly important to do that.

    Yeah, the BEL thing is a little bit iffy. I'd be reluctant to sell BELs that might be multi-gene masterpieces, I'm sure of that. However, I don't think I can justify buying single gene snakes to make them seeing as I already have what I need. I don't know what I'm going to do there. Tough to decide.

    I'll probably pair the GHI het red axanthic male with the enchi lesser pastel female for her first season. I'd really like to get started on super GHIs, so holding back a female early on is important. Plus, it gives me more time to think about the BELs.

    I'll be happy no matter what I produce as long as the babies are strong and healthy. I can dream of amazing odds and all that, but I'll be hoping for healthy snakes first. Thanks for your advice, I really appreciate it.

    Thank you! Those two snakes are without a doubt two of my best eaters and are growing quickly. It's amazing to see how much they've grown and how their colors have changed.
