    Looking for a book on BP genetics...
    Hey guy,

    I'm looking for a book/ PDF or website on BP breeding and genetics. I need it to be as detailed and concise as possible.

    Thanks!:)

    "The Complete Ball Python" By Keven McCurley is really good.

    Tracy Barker at VPI has a really good ball python book. It's not only about genetics, but about just about everything ball pythons.

    Stefan Broghammer has written some, they are good, only a bit hard to get:

    also the thing with genetics is that its the same for any sexually reproducing species. so here any introductory book on genetics for students can be helpful.

    many books about ball pythons cover morphs, husbandry, breeding, and some genetics, but if you are not satisfied with the genetics these BP-specific books deliver, go straight to genetics in general.

    I have this book too and it is wonderful! I love it and I have a hard time putting it down because I love all of the information.

    Genetics for Herpers, the Barker book, and http://www.worldofballpythons.com/ will give you practically everything that you are asking for. The World of Ball Pythons site has a morph list and a genetics calculator.
