Good starter breeding pair?

[patm1313]

I'm proably going to get two more snakes to breed sometime in the future, and I have yet to find a good pair. Can you guys help me out? Here's what I'm looking for:

1. Both of the snakes will also be pets, so they need to be good looking. I don't want Normals or Amels, though being het amel is okay.
2. They each have to be a different phenotype (appearence).
3. When bred, they should produce Something that is displaying two or more traits (ie. amelanistic bloodred, butter, ghost, etc.)
4. They should have equal traits (ie. Blood het lav X Lav het. blood)

I know I'm giving too many rules, but I'm really looking for the match that is perfect for me.

Thanks for all and any help.

Hmm...

It sounds like you should be more specific actually. There are a lot of multiple morphs that can breed and make even cooler stuff! I am working on getting a Blizzard male, and then trying to make some "white striped" snakes. My wife is in these projects from a genetics standpoint, she wants to see if theres anything we can do, that has not been done (or that is not the norm - because almost everything - if not everything has been done before ). The females I want are: Striped Snow, Candy Cane, Blizzard, striped Normal, Miami and a lookatee.

4. They should have equal traits (ie. Blood het lav X Lav het. blood).

I should have both of these this summer from my 1.0 Lav Blood X 0.1 het Lav Blood.

I'd go with blood het lav and lav het blood. Those are my two favorite morphs.

Do you have particular preferences when it comes to morphs?

I'm very partial to the yellow-shaded morphs, especially the intensity of colour that a Motley pattern adds to the mix. My ideal pairing is Butter Mot x Caramel het Amel & Mot, which will give you a mix of Butters, Butter Mots, Caramels and Caramel Mots.

Or you could get adventurous and go for a pair with three or more compatible hets, so that hatching day is like Christmas!
