Common Bn as zacy said can get different varients of them aswell eg; longfin and albino to spice it up, very hardy plecos and clean extremely well. a catfish d-cave is pretty essential and a piece of driftwood

yup i know but i dont think id make much money off breeding them.
is there any difference with breeding common bn and peppermint bn, also are the amount of eggs they have about the same and would you know roughly how many eggs one female would have

No you won't. If you are looking for the "the easiest L number pleco to keep and breed", then by extention, they are not going to give you massive returns if you sell them. Anyone can/is already doing it easily.
http://www.plecoplanet.com/ is a great resource for many of your breeding questions specific to L-numbers. Check it out - will give you a great base from which to move forward.

if you want to make money of something easy to breed, id say get longfin bn very easy to breed, not all that common still pretty common and worth a tad more $

Common short $1/cm
Albino short $2-$3/cm
Common long $3/cm
Albino long $3-$3.50/cm
That's just from memory of what iv seen and as said its what ever someone is willing to pay.
Maybe consider L144 to me it's just an albino bn with blue eyes but I know people disagree on that
