I want to start ball python breeding to get a little money. I'm 14 years old and I'd like to begin a breeding experiment this year. Can someone tell me some simple things to do to start breeding. I'm going to purchase 2 yellow bellies and attempt getting an Ivory ball. I understand genetics and everything and I own 1 normal ball right now.



What do I need to do to breed ball pythons? I've got my eyes on a yellow belly male for sale, but how large do they need to be to breed?



How much would a breeding sized female yellow belly cost? And what size should it be to breed. I'm really wanting to try my hand at ball python breeding and I think this would be a good starting morph.



Are there any others that would produce good priced morphs from cheaper balls like the yellow bellies? My goal is to get a pair that would be under 500 dollars.



So my limit is about 500 dollars but I'd go 600 as well. So are yellow bellies good? Would a female and male breeding sized yellow belly pair be under or around 500? Thanks in advance!
