corn snake breeding question

I recently bought an adult female crimson corn and I was wondering what I should breed it with. Anybody done any breeding with crimsons or have any suggestions? I have many morphs of males between me and a friend so any possibility I can do. Thanks jason

Crimson is the trade name for a Hypo Miami. A Miami is a selectively bred normal. Genetically you just have a Hypo. Assuming their are no hidden hets, you could only produce Hypos from pairing this female with a non-Crimson Hypo. Because Crimson is a selectively bred Hypo, the only way to consistently produce more Crimsons (without taking years to selectively breed them back out if you outcross) is to breed her to another Crimson.

I would suggest breeding her with a Snow (Amel + Anery), Butter (Amel + Caramel) or one of these two in Motley or Stripe. Amel, Anery & Caramel are the top color morphs found in hets in Cornsnakes, so it wouldn't be unusual to find that she carries one of these. Never hurts to test Motley and Stripe either in the mix.

Assuming no hets in the Crimson, you would end up with Normals het Hypo plus whatever the male is homozygous for.
