thanks for all the help so far Today I am building my rack from melamine and 28 qt. tubs from target. I allready have 15 feet of 11 inch flexwatt that I am going to cut into 6 inch pieces and install on my rack and I also bought a rancho thermostat so when I get my lucy he will go straight into a rack. My favorite morph is pied and my goal is to breed my lucy to 3 high end females that will produce high end morphs so I can trade them for 2 male and 6 female pieds next year

My advice, as always, is to go around and find pictures of as many morphs as you can and choose the ones you like the most.

My rack is done and he will be here Thursday. I am just going to look for 3 Lucy females so all the babies are Lucy

I'd suggest getting 3 different females so your not trying to sell 20+ hatchlings of the same kind of snake
but that's just me...

Buying 3 sub adult females to raise up till they are ready to breed is a wonderful plan
for someone new to the hobby

Females maybe, males not so much.
What happens if you make 18 males and 4 females

Every bit of it was good advice.

I agree, I would go for different females, maybe one that will make Lucys but not all of them.

I thought male Lucy would be easy to unload because you could pair them with normal females y
