Hi, guys!

I'm new to this site and new to breeding, but wanted to breed a couple of my snakes next year, just on the hobby side. I don't plan to create a business out of it, but thought it would be a fun way to have more snakes (!!!) that will probably look really cool! I had a couple of questions related to a variety of topics, so I'm hoping this is the right sub-forum to post in.

The parents will be a spider enchi ghost and a super pastel lesser, so I'm hoping for some really cool bee babies! Speaking of morphs, my first question is this: As I understand it, since the mother has super pastel, all the babies should have at least pastel in them. Do recessive morphs work the same way? Since the father has visible ghost, will all the babies be het for ghost? I did one of those genetics calculators, and it added the "100% Het Ghost" tag to each of the outcomes. Everything else makes sense in that it'll be a combination of the parents' morphs, but the workings of co-dominant and recessive morphs throw me off a bit.

Second, I've seen a lot of advice on what size of prey to feed babies, but I've heard little about the live versus frozen aspect. Is it understood that babies start on live and transition to f/t or pre-killed? Has anyone had any luck starting babies on f/t or what have you?

I'm doing a lot of prepping in advance to make sure I go into the next breeding season as informed as possible. Thanks in advance!

BTW, here's some pics of my babies (not great ones, but what I had on hand):


This is Whiskey!



This is Tango!

P.S. One of the babies will 100% be named Foxtrot. I find myself to be very clever.
