Grabbing adults takes the fun out of watching them grow...

Rob's vote is mine as well. But if you really want to do it right, get the adult pair and tell her she can pick any baby out as her own.

The baby will be breed-able in a few years anyway, and by then you'll have more experience to work with the hatchies...

This all depends on your experience with snakes and breeding them. If you have a lot of hands on and the know how I say get the adult pair and let her pick a baby later on. If you don't have much for experience I would get the baby or a pair of babies.

Get a baby and watch it grow. They change with every shed and it is a pleasure to observe.

I'd have to agree with Kat (GunGirl).
