Pinstripe Super Mojave?

    Pinstripe Super Mojave?
    I was just wondering if it's possible to get a Pinstripe Super Mojave by pairing Jigsaws.

    I'm new to genetics but this is what I thought I would get from the pairing:

    37.5% Jigsaw
    18.75% Pinstripe BEL
    6.25% BEL
    6.25% Normal
    18.75% Pinstripe
    12.5% Mojave

    Is this correct?

    I can't even find a picture of BEL with other morphs...

    Here is a link to a genetics calculator: http://www.worldofballpythons.com/wi...4&female=73,84

    So yes you can get a pinstripe super mojave from this pairing. The thing is that the super mojave genes override other genes. Genetically speaking a pinstripe super mojave is great, it will produce 50% mojaves and 50% jigsaws when paired with a normal, but the snake itself will look like a regular super mojave. (Some pinstripe pattern might be visible under a backlight)

    Your percentages are correct.

    Yes. You can make a pinstripe super mojave. Because it's a white snake, it may be hard to distinguish a pinstripe BEL vs. a normal BEL. Some people have had success looking at pattern under a black light.

    You don't have t breed two Jigsaws though...Just Jigsaw x Mojave will do.

    Your percentages are correct.

    Was thinking that maybe because some super mojaves aren't exactly all white there might be a possibility to express the pinstripe pattern?

    Well I just thought that having an extra 6.25% chance wouldn't hurt, besides I've been looking at the jigsaws and I find them amazing.
