Black Back ball python

I have been talking to some people about a ghana ball I have and they said it looked like a black back. So I looked for morphs with that "morph" in it and found NERD's black back pastel and it looked AMAZING! But what I want to see is other morphs with the black back "gene" in it. Does anyone have any pics?


Here is NERD's black back pastel

nice. That cinny is amazing!!

Little off subject, but I never remember getting a straight answer on this... is black back a proven simple 1 gene morph or is it more of a selectively bred/accidentally bred/random thing?

There are single gene, genetic blackbacks. Then there are blackbacks that have a super form. Not all BB are genetic though.

I still haven't figured out what mine is for sure. All I know is she's genetic and creates BB cinnys when bred to a cinny but her "normal" BB offspring, while they are all identical, and have the same broken BB pattern with a continuous line under that section, they are not typical solid BB's. Now I have to breed back one of her offspring to find out if there is a super and why the BB cinnys are so much lighter than other lines of genetic BB cinnys.

From what I've been able to find out, unless it's an already proven line, it takes a couple generations to be able to accurately call it. I know I was confused about mine at first.

Then there are het reds which I don't consider BB because when put to other dark morphs like cinny and black pastel, you get a stripe instead of a BB in the combo. They act more like a green pastel.

But as far as BB's go in general, I'm still learning myself lol!

:D I hope yours turns out genetic! I think the favorite black back I ever saw was a black back lesser! Super gorgeous with some nice creamy colors :D the pattern just went great with the morph I think!

I just found a Mohave black back that was Amazing!! I've never seen a super black back though. Is it only certain lines that have a super form?

I think NERD has a BB line that has a super form. I'm not sure tho. Have to double check if it's them or not.
