Is there such thing of a 100% pewter ball python?

Pewter is nothing more than visuals of both Pastel and Cinnamon Pastel in one.

No it isn't, it's a bogus/confusing question.

This is the answer.

In order to be a pewter...the snake MUST carry the pastel gene and it MUST carry the cinny gene. It's either got 'em and will look like a pewter...or it doesn't.

In the BP world, 100% refers to the percent-chance an animal has to be "het" for a trait (such as albino). In that case, a 100% het for albino means it is carrying the gene for albino, but doesn't look like an albino.

If someone says a pewter is 100% pewter...they either don't know what they're talking about and are mixing up terminology....OR, they're trying to convince you that a snake is "het" for pewter...and there is no such thing.

As plenty of other people have said already, the terminology there is confusing at best. I don't really have anything to add as to the question, but in case someone hasn't linked you to here yet, check this out, it will help you understand what everyone is saying:

Well "Dude" if his answer didnt answer your question i would seriously consider finding another hobby cause what he said was pretty plain and simple .. and if you couldnt understand his answer then you wont be able to understand other genetics .. sorry but its true ..


if you really want in this hobby you should seriously read up on stuff for at least a year and then decide what you want to buy when you have a bit more understanding of what you want to get into ..just my opinion
