    Pastels?

    Okay so, if you breed 2 pastels, 25% of the offspring will be Super Pastels.

    My question is, what if you breed 2 super Pastels? Will a higher percentage of the offspring just be more Super Pastels? Or will they produce like, ULTIMATE SUPER PASTELS? lol (kidding)

    Or will the offspring just be some extremely nice Super Pastels?

    1.0 Pastel 09
    0.1 Pinstripe 13
    1.0 Champagne 13
    0.2 Pastel 13
    0.1 Normal Het Albino 13
    1.0 Albino 13

    Re: Pastels?

    If you breed two pastels, each egg has a 25% CHANCE of hatching out a super pastel. There is no guarantee that 25% of the clutch will be supers...some folks miss the odds entirely and don't hatch a single one...some folks get lucky and hatch a bunch.

    If you breed two supers together, then all the babies will be supers. There is no "super-duper". How "nice" they are depends entirely on the genetics of the parents...nice pastels tend to make nice supers...and if both parents are exceptional examples of the morph, you have a very good chance of having exceptional babies.

    EDIT for PS: Check out this link... http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=52847 ...it may help you understand the genetics a little more easily.
