Need suggestions for males

[Chaos]

So, after my first breeding season I've ended up with three babies. I've tried candeling them to determine sex and I'm thinking they're all females. Add the probable female I picked up at (National Pet Chain) and I've got four females between the ages of 1 week and 2 1/2 months.

I'm going to be looking to set them up in breeding colonies with a male/2 females. The genetics of the four babies are:

3x Hypo Carrot Tail het Tremper Albino
1x Possible Hyper Melanistic

I'm looking to get the most bang for my buck with two males. I'd love to get into the Giant gene with a Super Giant, but that may be out of my price range. My main goals are to fully utilize the SHTCT genes that I've got in three of them, and put some work into the HyperMelanistic to see if I can produce some seriously dark offspring. Trades and selling/buying of one is an option.

I'm not 100% on the genetics of the babies I hatched. I'm used to Ball Pythons and am still getting used to Leo genetics. The father is Super Hypo, Tangerine, Tremper Albino, and Carrot Tail. The mothers are normals.

Suggestions?

Test the national chain gecko for Tremper and Bell... Just saying.

I like color so I would use a tang tremper for the others. Tang makes everything better

I can try putting the national chain one with my SHTCT Tremper Albino when it gets old enough, but since I've already got three that are het for Tremper it's not that big a deal if it is too.

Tang=Tangerine? Sorry, still getting used to the lingo for Leos.

Sorry, yeah tangerine. Tangerine just adds to the color. IMO. You could go the raptor route also

Anyone else?

I would agree with Gary. Play with what you have. If you have hypo, carrot tail, and Tremper I would find something that has some or all of those things so you can work with them. If you really want a giant, I would spring for one good male and only breed one or two of the females.

I agree. Working with Super Hypo Tangerines and Sunglows is an awesome project to start with. Everyone likes them and ids a good morph to breed then hold one or two awesome ones back and so on.

Thanks for all the advice, y'all. I'll be keeping it in mind when the next Atlanta Repticon comes around in November.
