    buy from a reputable breeder, they are just high gold snakes and very hard to tell unless you got a clutch picture and offspring to compare them to.

    They are very yellow and have red hues to them. Also look at the belly. The russos have a mojave looking belly. That should help. If you need pics PM me and ill send pics of Russos.

    yes russo's are het for white diamond. If you are worried about buying one from someone just go to the guy who was the first to have them (Vin Russo,link below). Also if you are going to pair it up with something you should pair it up with another russo especially if you want white diamonds, paired with something else and you will just get possible het russo's and of course whatever other morphs you breed it to.

    Or are russo's a co-dom gene? I'm not sure.

    Re: Help with Russo Het white diamond..
    In the 2002 Breeding Season I was very Fortunate enough to hatch a Blue Eyed Leucistic Ball Python "White Diamond" from 2 of my "High Yellow Lemon" Ball Pythons. The High Yellow Lemons are a Incomplete Dominant trait and when bred together produce Proven Genetic Leucistic Ball Pythons. Since the name "Lemon Ball" is a little confusing ( and since there are a few white snake producing Ball Pythons out there ) I decided to simply call these yellow colored Ball pythons "Russo Line Het Leucistics". When you breed a "Russo Line Het Leucistic" to a normal Ball Python you will get half a clutch of visible Het Lemon yellow colored Ball Pythons or Russo Line hets ( Proven here in 1998 ). These Hets are beautifull in their own right and are very distinguishable from their normal littermates. The Leucistics that these produce have deep Blue eyes that almost look through you and a pure white color over the entire snake - these are named "White Diamonds".
    This is off of vin russo's website.

    I have pics of my het Russo male in my profile. Yours looks very similar, but can't be sure.

    Help
    So if I have a male het Russo, what would I need in a female to produce white animals?
