    Welcome! The good news for your ball python genetics learning curve is that your first potential pairings are about as easy to understand as any pairings ever.

    With your normal female in the pairing, you'll never end up with anything more than the gene(s) you start out with in the male:
    • Male Spinner (Spider x Pinstripe) = 25% Spinners, 25% Spiders, 25% Pinstripes, 25% Normals
    • Male Super Lemon Pastel (Lemon Pastel x Lemon Pastel) = 100% Lemon Pastels

    In terms of what would be best, that's completely up to you. You'll be the one needing a plan to take care of the potential babies in the event that you run into issues selling them. You're certainly not going to get rich (not even close) with either of these pairings, so make sure to do it for the love and experience of doing so.

    Having said all of that, the Spinner male will give you the most diverse looking offspring.
