THIS is what I would do if I were you. You can get a lemon blast (pastel pinstripe) het clown in your price range. If you do hit the visual lemon blast clown they are selling for $2,000 to $3,000. You could use that money to buy more snakes LOL. If it doesn't prove out the first year I would get a visual male and try again the next year. Personally I would have done it the other way around, get a visual male and breed him to up to 5 het females.
