Maybe a dumb question but im new to breeding....

[Scrappy#13]

I have a yellowbelly 50% Het piebald male and a normal female if i breed them what should i expect? Thanks in advance!

[ReptilesK2]

Yellow bellies and normals..


(and ofcourse small chance for het pied, but you will have to prove him out first).

[Scrappy#13]

ok cool thanks! I appreciate the help i was unsure if the would all be normals. Like i said im new to this whole breeding thing.

This is the outcome if your yellowbelly is het pied

And this is the outcome if your yellowbelly isn't het pied (50-50 chances of your yellowbelly being het pied or not)

There will be no visual difference between anything that is het pied or not so from this pairing you have no way of knowing if your yellowbelly is het pied. I would try to breed the yellowbelly to a 100% het pied or a visual (homozygous) pied to find out if your yellowbelly is het pied or not.

I was going to suggest checking out the World of Ball Pythons, and the genetics wizard. Good job Serpent Merchant

LOL! Why is this censored?

I really don't know, I have been trying to figure this out, it does it every time there are hets involved in a table. I'm going to look at the table code and see if I can figure it out.

*Edit/Update*

I just looked at the table code and while I don't know exactly what triggers the censors here on BP.net I couldn't find anything that seemed like it could trigger them... strange. maybe a Mod/Admin knows
