I am a first time breeder and I'm looking into pairing two snakes together for myself. I have a male pied ( 1 yr old) and looking into getting a female. Maybe a spied or pastel pied. I was curious if I paired them together of I would get pied hets, or get spied pied or pastel pied babies or maybe a 50/50 combo. I would be buying the female as a baby so when she's ready to breed I have enough knowledge on how to make it successful.

Thank you for the help in advance.

Pied x pied would result in all pied babies. Pastel or spider (spied) would result in roughly 50% of the babies.

Thank you. Would that be an okay pairing. I love both and wouldn't mind them, but just curious if that's a pairing most people do?

I can't speak for "most people" but I do think it's a good pairing. Pied are always sought after.
