What's your $5000 dream project

If you had $5k to put together a breeding project what would it be? it can be for pleasure or prophit. Also what is your reasoning behind your choice?
 
For my personal collection I would love a palmetto :)

But for breeding projects, I have 2 things I would want to work with.

The first would be extreme okeetee tesseras. With nice bright orange/red and lots of black.

The other I don't know a ton about but I would like to work with sunkissed anery motlies. I would love to make some sunkissed sin spot aneries.


But alas I do not have the time to work with either now.
 
If I had 5K for corns only I think I would be looking for cinder females with as many het for everythings I could score, since so many are having male only cinder clutches. I would also be scouring the for sale ads for original silver queens (not outcrossed)
If it's 5K that I can spend on any snake I'd probably get more of the applegate splotched sinaloans as they have really grown on me (I know, they are not costing 5K any more so I'd have to get a few of them)
So where do I sign up LOL
 
Palmetto, hands down. One of the most beautiful snakes out there. I know not original, but still beautiful. Maybe a striped color project on it?
 
Boelens Python. Such amazing animals (Crappy cell photo I took in July of a female, that belongs to one of my friends.)

Boelens is one of the most beautiful and awesome snakes.

Agreed 100%!
I geeked out as soon as I saw he brought her out. LOL It was the first time I have ever seen one in person, and they are even more incredible in person than in pictures.
Edit to add: very few have produced them in captivity. Jason Baylin has in the past, and Marc Spataro recently hatched out a clutch (after trying for three years in a row).

If my fried with the above female ever produces babies, I will be getting one of the babies. I only need one. I have no plans on breeding them, but I just want one. It will be down the road, but I will get one someday.
 
I would love to work with boelans or a small australian python but would be afraid that they are a bit tricky. However I have never owned a python of any sort that's in my eyes like giving a new driver a Ferrari. Boas on the other hand I love keeping them and may wind up with a couple amazon tree boas in the future.
 
I would create an amazing corn room. With any money left over I would buy the simple morphs I don't have, like saffron or pewter or really any of the pink morphs. I only have 9 right now, but I like the eclectic group of colors.
