BHB gives info on some scaleless concerns

Scaleless heads are co-dom http://www.worldofballpythons.com/mo...caleless-head/

yeah, incomplete dominant is the more accurate term.

anyway, not recessive. its much too obvious for that. i mean, its missing scales right in the middle of the head.

It can technically be labeled as heterozygous for scaleless too. Like how pastel is Het for homozygous super pastel.....

Visual 'recessives' like Het clowns/pieds aren't called co-dom. Yet they show 'codom' traits.

Its all little technicalities.
And BP genetic labels are already inaccurate enough. Co-dominance isn't even the correct term either. Its incomplete dominance. Similar, but not the same......

You could go that route, but it's visual het.

As are all the morphs the BP hobby call co-dom.

i really expected the absence of belly scales and that shedding and eye caps are fine, yesterday BHB posted a picture of a scaleless shed with eye caps in it.

he downplayed the heat pit issue a little bit, yeah they probarbly sense heat, but its not directional anymore.

still, it looks like they will be quite viable, with few issues, at least they eat and shed and grow. place your bets: will BHB make a post when they first crap?

i guess the first scaleless combos will come out next year or in two years, BHB now has at least two scaleless, and a pastel scaleless head and a pinstripe scaleless head and some other scaleless head breeders, and Mike Wilbanks has 3 scaleless heads.

more or less confirmed. first there were rumours, it leaked on facebook and elsewhere, then Brian Barczyk mentioned in an interview just days later that he very recently sold a small group of BPs for 210000 dollars. and the rumours were that Mike Wilbanks purchased 3 scaleless heads for something like 60000 or 70000 each. fits nicely. even for BHB, selling a small group of BPs for 210000 dollars should be kinda rare.
