TSK has some awesome sankes!!! Questions...

I was looking around and apparently I've never seen TSK's collection page. Amazing! :bow:

I don't want to get in trouble for hotlinking, sorry you'll have to do some extra foot work, but there are some awesome snakes on there! http://www.ballpython.com/index.php?page=morphs

My favorites are:
Coffee
http://www.ballpython.com/morphinfo.php?morph=15

Tri-Stripe
http://www.ballpython.com/morphinfo.php?morph=111

Mojave Het Ivory
http://www.ballpython.com/morphinfo.php?morph=127

Now for the questions.
I've seen the coffee on a few sites, are there several floating around?

The tri-stripe is AMAZING! When was it "founded" and are there many?

I'm very confused by the mojave het ivory, a mojave yellow belly correct? I thought I read somewhere that a mojave yellow belly was a white-ish snake? If not, I would say the mojave yellow belly is one of the best combos I've seen with a mojave. I'm usually less than impressed with the mojo combos. Very neat!

That Tri-Stripe is a really SWEET looking snake!!! WOW!!!:gj:

They do have awesome snakes :gj: as for the Mojave Het Ivory, yes that is a Mojave Yellow Belly. Mojave and Yellow Belly are not compatible so you don't get a white snake when breeding the two.

Stephanie, there are several coffees floating around; however, it never proved to be genetic. TSK proved out the tri-stripe a couple years back. They had it for a while and proved it to be a recessive trait. There are a couple of others around that look very similar but I don't think they've been around long enough to prove out.

I found the thread I was thinking about. Apparently it wasn't a mojave yellow belly http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=82282 I knew they weren't the same white snake, but I remembered reading this, but I guess I never read all the way through.

That is such a neat mojo combo, I don't know why there isn't more! It's like the jigsaw! They are AWESOME!

Thank you very much!

It's so weird that there are several coffees, but they aren't genetic. Are they created by similar pairings?

You're welcome, I believe they were CH babies that were brought in. There may be more and some may of come from other sources so I can't say all were CH. It seems strange that they aren't genetic, maybe they just pop up randomly??

If you really want to flip your lid just think about this one. They bred a Male Tri-Stripe to a Banana and look at the six egg clutch she just laid.

Yes it will a very pretty and amazing snake when they finally hatch out the banana tri-stripe. I have had the privilege of being inside their facilities and seeing the combination they have done. There are even some that they never even put on their website that I would kill to have. Someday I hope to be half the breeder they are.

No but any Banana’s that hatch out will be as well as all of the other offspring. If they hatch out a Male they have Female Tri-Stripes that could go for them next year. Cool project!
