this subject comes up too often....and there is NO answer...

what YOU want
what YOU like
what YOU can afford
what sells in your area
what you have room for
etc
etc
etc

.......get a hypo super pastel GHI banana enchi pinstriped pied...and breed it to a hypo super pastel enchi pinstriped clown pied toffee candy.....you will LOV the results....but none can afford these.....

.....whatever YOU want !!!!!

some people buy a pair of everything and are still not happy ,,,and want more.....trust me...you will always want something you don't have .....

To me it is about the animals and not the money. Sure, my wife and I would love to be able to make our living selling snakes, but at least in my area nobody buys the higher end stuff. In the end it is about what you like, because if they don't sell you have them.

Buy a rack first, and then fill it. I would go with Co Dom Het Recessive females first, and a really nice Co Dom visual male. For example: Lesser Het Genetic Stripe female, Pastel Het Genetic Stripe female, and a Butter Genetic Stripe male. Pick your recessive gene, one you like, and go with a nice trio to start with.

...I forgot that part....get the racks the bowls the substrate supply down rodent supplier down and get the knowledge you need to be successful at everything involved....good idea...

.....buy females....great idea...

...I would buy genetic visuals....recessives and co-doms....not hets anymore...but it all depends on cash you have....

.....males are cheap....buy triples at least...
