Lesser Platinum vs Lesser

Whats the difference between a Lesser Platinum and a Lesser?

Absolutely nothing. The "Platinum" is a combination of het. platinum with a lesser

Ok, so is Platinum a gene on it's own?

So this is a Lesser 50% possible het Platinum?!?

No, lesser and lesser platinum are just 2 names for the same snake.

To make a palatty daddy you cross a lesser with a "het daddy" (which is a dominate gene)

its just like how pastels were originally called jungle pastels but over time we have dropped the jungle.

Here is Ralph Davis' explanation: http://www.ralphdavisreptiles.com/co...all_python.asp

A lesser cannot be het. platinum without being a platty daddy(platinum). I did a lot of research when I got my possible het. platinum from a het to lesser breeding if I remember correctly

Lesser used to be called Lesser Platinum like Enchi used to be called Enchi Pastel , and Cinnamon used to be called Cinnamon Pastel, and at some point they all dropped part of their name which in a way is good since it was confusing a few people.
