Too Many Spots To Be A Reduced Pattern?

I always thought of her as a reduced pattern animal.

This is what she produces. Again, I think it's reduced (minimal spots).

What would you guys say qualifies as a reduced pattern?

I would say yes... for me the reduced patterns are marked by the lack of speckling. Having the odd "O" in there, especially when it is such a clean "O"... just seems part of the pattern.

Obviously you have something genetic going on.

Beautiful snake and really sharp babes.

There are levels and variations of reduction. You seem to have a genetic reproduction of that pattern which is definately more reduced than your normal alien head pattern. It is also possible those are only hets of a much more reduced animal since some reduced patterns are recessive.

reduced or not, they definately got whatever mom has!

This is the second time she threw babies like that.
4 out of 6 first clutch
3 out of 5 second clutch

Funny you should mention the babies being hets. Greg Graziani said the exact same thing about the last clutch. Breeding the offspring should produce extremely reduced babies.

Here is one after shedding.
