    Starting-up breeders..

    I am just curious as to the plans of other breeders who are just starting up, as I am. what are you attempting to produce this year? What are your plans for next year, and for the not-so-distant future?
    This year I am breeding:
    Pastel x Normal
    Pastel x Normal 2
    Normal x Normal
    I hope to hatch out, you guessed it, Pastels and Normals. I will then keep two Pastel females and maybe a few normal girls, and sell the rest online. Some of the normals, I will sell them through my friend's pet store along with proper caging, caresheets, etc.
    For 2008, I plan on breeding my 3 normal females to my Spider male.. then holding a Spider female back for later breeding.. 2009 my het albinos should be ready to go.. super pastels.. bees.. later, albino spiders? ..
    So how about you?

    With out dad the money would have run short.
    Without Carrie (my loving ever supportive "snake hateing" wife) I wouldn't be able to have so many snakes in the house.

    Re: Starting-up breeders..

    This year I'm doing Cinnies, Lemon Pastels, Super Pastels, and hopefully Pewters.

    Next year I'll be trying for more Pewters, Sterling Pastels, Pieds, Pastel Het. Pied, and Albinos... and hopefully a few more combos depending on what I pick up this year.

    Re: Starting-up breeders..

    Currently:

    het ghost x normal (2) : more or less for the experience than the thought of ghosts

    I may toss my het albino male in with one of the normals as a "backup" but again more or less for experience and so he can "learn" what to do LOL

    Next year or later with current stock:

    het albino x het albino
    pastel x normal (multiple)
    YB x normal (multiple)
    YB x YB
    may include het ghost male in future breeding but currently do not have het female so he could be retired or sold/traded.
