When I first had plans for a male, I considered maybe a pastel yellow belly het for pie, but after poking around awhile recently now that money is now making it possible to buy a male sometime in the future, I'm a little stuck on what I would like to do. I have been interested in maybe starting a panda pie project, so I considered a black pastel with YB (I'm curious if Cinnamon Roll might have YB in her, even if the chances are slim), but I do so love the looks of banana balls that I have also considered a banana YB with or without pastel. There is technically a black pastel YB banana, but I have not seen them for sale and suspect they might be a new/rare combination of sorts, so I'm still looking around. In the end I will choose the one I like best as is so important with breeding ball pythons, but I do want to see options just in case I miss something. The piebald gene is my favorite thus far, so I doubt anything can truly go wrong if I can manage a het with some good genes! The thrill of possibly hatching a pie is something I look forward to.
All of this said, Cinnamon Roll still has a year, perhaps more, to go before she can be bred. It might be longer if money does not permit at the time or if she does not seem ready, but I do enjoy researching options in the meantime and am very eager for suggestions to poke around at. c:
Also here's a picture of the little baby, she was hatched January of 2015!
