1. Read up on the different morphs, the genetics, ext. NERD has some good Articles on genetics, and click on photo gallery, then ball pythons and a morph page comes up. Pick your favorite, Make a list, The genetics, and what it would take time wise and financially to make it. Rate your favorite and down, then factor in price.

2. Check classifieds, its a great place to find a variety of different price and quality animals, then read the breeder, go to there site, and see if it all seems good.

3. If you like some animals, Go to Faunaclassifieds.com , Make a account, Go to the Board of Inquiery and on the right hand side you will see a search forum thing that is only there if you register and are logged in, Google the breeders name, Company name, website ext. See the reviews. Factor in good verus bad, and if there are a few bads, go to the next guy.

There are enough ball python breeders where there should be something you like for the price you want it for (as long as your range is in market value).

Also, just currious, Do you currently own Ball pythons? If not, My suggestion is get one, Maybe a morph you want, Maybe a male pastel, or something else, Make sure you get your care down pat, You research a ton, and in a few months after getting good with them, Get a female, Then when both are older, and larger, (find appropriate breeding weights online), breed them. Have baby racks set up. And your good.

I dont mean to be rude, Just i wouldnt jump into breeding right away if you are not sure on morphs and what each means. Take your time, theres no rush into breeding, Its probably alot harder then it seems, and selling animals may take some time too. So make sure your ready, and then your good.

Ben

awesome advice, you took the words right outta my mouth!
