| You may want to have a read of the co habitating threads before you go any further its not a good idea to house hatchlings together theres a risk of cannibalism im not saying dont do it but just that you may wanna have a read first youve got a good few years before she will be ready to breed anyway |

If you are looking for a future breeding partner for your girl then you ideally want one that has the same genes that Karma does. I'm not entirely sure what she is from that pic but looks like a snow which is made up of anery and amel. So anything with these genes or het for these genes would work well.
Having said that, you really do not want to be getting a partner that will live with her now. As has already been said, hatchlings can be canaballistic which would almost certainly result in the death of both snakes. As they get more sexually mature, you run the risk of premature breeding which carries a high risk of killing your female. Breeding partners do not need to live together. Snakes are solitary creatures and only come together to mate, they do not have to be life partners. Have a read of this thread, it's long but well worth it if you are considering housing snakes together.

| the easiest thing to do is to look at what morphs you want to achieve and then work backwards to what you can start with. The corn calculator (corncalc.com) is a great help if you have a play with it you can see what is possible and get a better idea of a good starting point. |
