help a noob out?

SilentJohn Oct 15, 2013 02:56 PM

I've tried to do some research, even found a site that has a chart where you can plug in any number of combinations from single gene, dom, co-com, up to quad gene plus and everything in between, for both the male and female. My brain scrambled and exploded. I'm hoping there's a kind hearted Ball Python person who can help me out like I use to help out the colubrid folks back in the day.
anyway what I have collected and a couple questions.
1.0 Albino
1.0 Spider
1.0 Bumblebee
1.0 pastel YB

0.1 Pastel
0.1 100% het albino
0.3 YB
0.3 normals
First question,
What would you guys match up? Being new to this my priority is not making big bucks (though I'd like to at least "pay" for my hobby) I'm more looking for the excitement of seeing how many different looking snakes pop out.
Also, it doesn't have to be what would be best the first season, but maybe 3 years from now breeding some of clutch "a" to clutch "c" down the road, for example.

Second question.
If there is a certain morph that would work better with what I have already (I can spare up to $400) what would you recommend?

Thank you

I agree withJYohe, makes no sense to feed, clean after a male Spider when you already have a Bumblebee male, sell him! With the $400 I'd either buy a Pastel Enchi male which would produce well with some of your gals, or just buy a nice female baby and grow her up for two - three years down the road.my .02
