    Pied x Pied = ?
    I have a question to all of the pied ball python breeders out there. Someone tried to tell me that when you breed two pieds together, you will not get any pied ball pythons. Is this true? Is the super form of pied "normal" looking? I can't see how this would be true but figured I'd come to the ones that know to confirm or deny this!

    Pied X Pied = all pied

    the Pied is the homozygous form of the Pied gene.

    heh no... pied to pied you will get all pieds.

    Het pied to het pied is a different story... normal to het pied is also different.

    Check this out: http://www.ballpythons.ca/genetics.html

    and this is for recessive genes, which are pieds:

    Right on! Pied x Pied is the way to go if you don't want to play the odds game. :)

    That is what I thought, guys, and I appreciate the confirmation!

    I don't know where my friend got his info.... :-)

    Hey Justin, how are your "surprise" pieds doing?

    I wonder if your friend thinks that a pied is the het form. Now that would be awesome! What would a super pied look like? Most likely white... :(
