New pick up <3 I'm in love
Ok so for the past 6 months I've been looking around and asking breeders if they had both a vanilla and fire ball python they said yes but only one or the other so I decide to keep looking then out of no were my friend says hey you wanna buy this rack? I heard you were looking for one so I said yes I am it was a 15 tub hatchling rack then after agreeing on that for 150$ he then says you also want this girl and sends me pics and I was blown away then he says it's a fire vanilla I nearly made a mess in my trouser lol jk but I said I'd take both he said the best he can do was 400$ and within an hour I was at his house to pick up this bad girl lol she's soo hot she's on fire ;) pun intended

A clown would be cool, of course you'd have to breed back to get any visuals, which makes it a 5-6 year project. .. I'd grow up the female to 800-1000 g before getting a male to mate her to... that's a mistake I made when I was starting out. I started with a male and I realize now it was the complete opposite thing to do.
Good luck and keep us posted on the pretty girl!

Yea i have recently done that my pewter I sexed female 3 times lol is most likley a male lol my pewter gets pissy I'd guess is best to say because when I throw my for sure male cinnamon in my pewter moves alot hisses and bucks around spilling the water and doesn't stop till I remove him and that's the only one that slipped by me and it was before I bought a probe kit to always double check if I'm not 100% sure but anyways I have popped and probed her and she's 100% female as my friend stated but I think I actually changed my mind and want to use my pastel special male

Great additions! Really nice projects as well. Good luck. :gj:
Re: New pick up <3 I'm in love
Thank you :) and yea it will be awhile as she's maybe 200 grams I haven't weighed her yet but next year he is hopefully going to my Mojave spider and I have both fingers crossed to hit crystal bumblebees but I'll happy with any crystals I decided to go with them as I liked how they still displayed a pattern unlike other bel related morphs

Since the Vanilla Cream female you have is allelic animal, she won't be able to produce any normals, only fires or vanillas, but she also won't be able to reproduce herself. It's always one or the other gene, never both in the same babies unless the second gene came from dad (like breeding a vanilla cream to a fire and getting another vanilla cream). This is because both genes reside on the same locus. It's the same idea as the BEL complex, where tons of compatible genes such as Mohave and lesser paired together produce snakes that look drastically different and who's genetics work like a super form (no normal babies) but produce two possible gene outcomes in the offspring. If you breed a Mohave lesser to a normal your clutch will be only mojaves and lessers, but never a white snake and never a normal. So basically allelic animals can't reproduce themselves in the first clutch (Zehra bred to a normal) like regular combos can. Because of this it's actually impossible to hit the 4 gene combo you want with this pairing.
Sorry for the long winded post lol. The highest gene animals you can hit on are a special firefly or a pastel vanilla special.
