pretty sweet! im glad to know he came from a good place. I was originally planning on breeding him with our pastel; but considering he's a 1500 dollar snake i think i should get him a more suitable mate lol any ideas? im thinking mojave or pied..

Did you get him for free?

Congrats on the pickup, he's definitely a clean POG and a stellar example of the morph (IMO).

Mate-wise; do you want instant results or a long-term project? What do YOU want to look at? Clean? Feed? For the next 20+ years? Basing his mate solely on market prices is a bad decision in my opinion. You may produce an $XXXX-value snake, but if it is hideous and you don't enjoy looking at it, why produce it? Just my $0.02.

Breeding him to a Mojave might get you Pastave Het Ghosts and to a Pied might get you Pastel Double Het Pied Ghost. If you hit the odds on the best combos, you can make some very nice stuff down the road.

Personally I'd get a couple Co-dom Het Ghost females and maybe a Ghost female for later on (a combo Ghost female would be best). Hope that helps.
