What would you guys say is the best ball morph to get if your goal was to breed it, and then trade the offspring for new morphs. My final goal is a lucy, albino, spider, pastel, and pied, but I only want to buy one to start. I was thinking mojave, since it should be easy to trade for pastels, spiders and albinos since it seems like everyone has them. Plus it would eventually get me a lucy.

What do you think?

I'd go with the albino or pied. Both are resesive so they will hold their price alot more. This time next year. . or by the end of this year for that matter mojave's will be about 1K if that. The mojave's and cinnys have droped in price like crazy in the past year so I'd go with resesive. But thats just my thought on it.

I understand that it will hold its price better, but do people still want them in trades? I would rather not have to sell offspring for the money to buy morphs.

Although the albino is my favorite so it would be a nice one to start with.

If your on a limited budget I would get a pair of albinos. You should be able to find a pair for $2500-$3000. That way you will produce all visual albinos. No one will trade anything for hets from an unknown. People will still trade for albinos. Even if they already have albinos they can always resell them.

EVERYONE, I mean 99.9% of people that breed Balls need another Ghost female. I would get a few Het Ghost females and a Ghost male. OR, Ghost male, Pastel female, Het Ghost females.
