Need help with breeding corns

Okay, I want to breed some corns, and I do have one breeding pair, but I want to get some different stuff. This is what I have:

(My breeding pair) Male sunglow motley and Female anery A - together, they have produced one clutch consisting of 4 anery a's, 3 normals, one amel, one normal patterned snow, and one motley snow. So I am assuming that the anery A is het for amel and/or snow, and the sunglow motley is het for anery A?
This is the rest of what I have:
Male normal stripe
Male amel
Male bloodred
Female Creamsicle Okeetee
Female Blizzard
Male snow

So what other morphs do I need to make some interesting corns? Like a pewter or a motley butter or striped butter?? I just know that some of these would not be good to breed together, and I want to know what I need to get to be able to breed what I already have. I hope y'all understood all of that! LOL! Thanx for any input!
 
OK...you have the hets for your breeding pair correct except that the female anery A is also het for motley since you got a snow motley hatchling. I am surprised you only got 1 motley, but sometimes the odds favor one side over another.

Your collection is a little male heavy, but a nice variety. If that was my collection, I would probably pair the female blizzard with the male bloodred. The first generation will be boring, but the next one won't!

The female creamsicle Okeetee, being a hybrid, could be paired with any of your males, but I would probably use either the normal stripe or the sunglow motley to eventually produce patterned hybrids.

For new females to match your current males, a butter motley or caramel motley het butter would be nice. You could also try an ultramel motley for good F1 results. A pewter would also fit very well and would go nicely with the F1 offspring from your current blizzard X bloodred. Adding any of the other hypo genes into your collection would also greatly increase what you could eventually produce.
 
Since you already have a bloodred male, I would opt for some kind of female that is bloodred, or maybe a couple of bloodred outcross females with a variety of other hets like amel and anery or something.

Caramel motey het butter or butter mot would be a great addition. So would a lavender female to put with the stripe man. You could breed their kids together and hope for lavender stripes. :cheers:
