Ideas on Breeding my Super Pastel?

[Stewart_Reptiles]

Hello everyone! I'm new to this site, and new to reptiles in general. I've wanted a snake, and to be able to breed them for years, and I'm finally at a point in my life that I can make that happen.

I have a female super pastel that's a bout a year old, so I still have at least a year to decide what to breed her with. So, any suggestions?

I thought that breeding her with a normal would be good practice. The male would be very cheap to obtain, and if I've got a good grip on the genetics, this will result in a full clutch of het pastels, right?

Any suggestions or guidance for my first clutch would be wonderful!

I think the first step would be to learn genetics first, Super Pastel to Normal = all Pastel

Second step is to know the market an realise that the market is FLOODED with pastel which sell for about $20 to $40 which means by the time you hatch them house them and sells them which can take a LONG time because again they are Pastel you will be in the red financially.

Breeding a normal male to a Super Pastel female is a waste, always get the most gene you can afford, and I know you may not be in it for the money but trust me no one is in it to lose money and having to care for multiple mouths for an undetermined amount of time.

Now here is a tip the most popular Mutation pet wise at shows and locally is the Banana or Coral Glow they are affordable but they sell.
