I know that most of us have a few dinker projects that we have hidden away in hopes of something really cool hatching out. Myself included.
Let me start by saying that 5 years ago, I traded two spotted pythons for two female ball pythons from a guy in Florida. I was sure that they were CH babies but I was willing to take the risk. One died a short time after I received them; didn't want to eat. The other fed and grew but stopped around 900 grams. I finally got her to start feeding again and got her to size to breed this past season. I had my suspicions as to what she was so I paired her with a nice 100% het pied male from 8ballpythons (thanks Adam!) Well, has the clutch started to hatch, I was very amazed.
She was exactly what I thought she was; a het pied!
I didn't get just one but two pieds!
Here are a few post shed pics of the clutch.
The flip side of this is that the whole clutch was all males.
