Nope. Just said that they're owned by NERD. You could contact them to ask about it, or hope they see this thread and decide to throw us a bone, lol. Oh! As I recall, this came out in late 2007/early 2008, so I assume that the red spectrum was existant in 2007, possibly beforehand. I have my suspicions about what might be involved, but I don't know for sure and so won't speculate in such a manner as might spread rumors.

I also heard that one of our own members on here may have one acquired through trade... but wont put it out there.

The 'Viper' ball has red, only problem is it hasn't reproduced as far as I know.

Google Images gave me this site:

If you scroll down you can find a bunch of pictures... And those are from 2007, so obviously they have been around a little while. I wouldn't exactly call them "red and white", but they are definately cool.

There are more pictures here:

Also, I found some info here:

This states that it is a lesser x yellowbelly......can it be that simple???

Strange... but it seems true and quite simple.
I'm just surprised that they aren't more popular. Maybe they look bad as adults?

Well now I'm kind of excited but also kind of disappointed at the same time.

I have a lesser and a yellowbelly so I could make these, but they aren't a new base morph like he tried to say.

They are produced with a lesser + hidden gene woma and a few other things. there are currently lesser yellowbellies for sale on some of the internet sites and they look nothing like these Red Spectrum. We are starting to see some "red" ball python combos. The Red spectrum are definitely red along with the Mojave/Enchi combo.

It's a cool looking animal but that's very far from what I'd call a red ball python.
