New Breeding Project Help

So I am getting back into the Ball Python family after about 15 years out of the game. My dad and I had them when I was growing up just as the Ball Python scene blew up, but we more liked them as pets.

I just purchased a beautiful yellowbelly desert ghost female, and I am not sure where to start with breeding her. I am looking for a good project to start on. I love Desert Ghost which is why I got her.

Some things I am interested in are Clown, Leopard, Asphalt, Axanthic, Freeways, Orange dream, Lessers. Not sure what direction I want to go with breeding, or good projects to work on to make some beautiful babies.

Any input would be great help!

Thanks all!

Hi and welcome to the community:) Interesting background.
I suggest another desert ghost or het with what other morphs appeal to you most.
Kinova has the other morphs you like with DG in alot of his videos. Have a look at some of those if it would help.

I dont work with DG but I agree with @ascended that you might want to get another visual or het DG, but pay attention as I’ve seen some things where DG genes are… interesting to say the least.

Here’s a link to what I am talking about:

And here are some of my opinions but I am really biased towards these because they are my favorites lol.

•VPI Axanthic- get one from a breeder with a good line that has high contrast. If you want to breed a good line I suggest sticking with the ones that have nice contrast.

•Clown or any Clown combo is a go-to. If you get your hands on visuals its even better.

•Its pretty basic but I love Pastels and their combos.

I actually have been watching a lot of his videos. I’ve been finding more things that look very appealing. He has some great desert ghosts.
