I have 3 breeder size female pastels, one really pretty one, one nice one and an older female ( about 6 years) who is very browned out.I have 3 males on hand ( spider, albino, cinnamon) and a pinstripe if needed.Would a cinny be a better choice to breed with a darker female, as opposed to the spider, or should I try the albino and hope for some pretty het babies?

My plan is to put the spider with the lightest, the cinny with the darkest, and maybe put EVERYONE with the other female to hopefully get one of those clutches that just seems to have everything in it. I wasn't planning on putting the pastel with any of them, I have not seen a good pic of a pastel albino to judge from. Has anyone had any experience with this? I have seen pics of the supers the dark female has produced, and they were knockouts, so her genes are strong, she is just an old hag now.

Would a nice young male help clean up the bloodline, or should I just work with what I have.

sorry about rambling, its 3 am here and I am waiting on laundry to finish so I can crash

I would not put the albino male with the female you are hoping to get multiple offspring from....the best you would get is possible hets, because there is no way for you to know if he bred her or not. Take her to the co doms only.

I was not going to put the albino with her if I were going to do the multiple male scenario, I just dont know which route to take with that female.

I would work with what you got and also 6 years old is not an old hag who knows she may just give you the most eggs.

40 is reaching the old hag stage.
