I agree, when you have two snakes it sounds crazy. When you have 10's of thousands of dollars invested in them and thousands of man hours it is not crazy any more. There are certain diseases that are not curable and very contagious. You can loose everything with one little mistake. Many of us also run totally redundant systems so that if we have an equipment failure nothing happens.

I would love to get to that kind of level, but that would take me many, many years! I actually have 3 snakes. I also have a corn snake, but that is more for the mrs. I prefer BPs cos they just look amazing and both of mine are gorgeous!

Re: Is Major a normal?
It does appear that those are "het" markers but like Eric said they are not a definite statement. The main way to find out or "prove" out the possible het pied is to breed the animal to a visual pied or another "proven het pied".They are both nice looking animals and I agree on the pastel id on the one in question.

what kind of idiotic logic is that. as far as you know the person he got it from unambiguously told him it was a normal and only after the fact his cousin said it wasn't a normal. if the person was being deceitful he would have said it was a pastel het pied, seeing as there is just so much controversy regarding the morph
fallacy of composition ftw

How would that determine if Major is het or not? If i bred him to a visual pied, wouldn't their offspring be visual anyways? Thank you for complimenting my snakes. I love them! Lol. From what i have been told, is it safe to say i have a Pastel?
