Another one...who can't...

I had always wondered what exactly causes a paradox. Is it just another mutated gene just like the original gene in the first place?

But man, I'm not complaining or anything, and you shouldn't either! :D

It hasn't been proved out yet, but they are definitely working on it. It would be neat to see that on a pied, because the patterns on a regular pied are really different from a normal, and a paradox pied would have white, pied patterns, and normal patterns, that would be soo cool!

:bow::bow::bow: Man...

I'm loving that one!

Do a forum search on the word "chimeraism". There are a couple posts that discuss this....

Here she is, what do you guys think, Paradox Ivory or Paradox Yellow Belly? She does have that yellow dorsal stripe. :)

That is just too cool!

I can't wait to receive a clutch from my pair of YB. :gj:

Wow I'd say paradox Ivory, to even have that white and the dorasl I would assume ithas 2 sets of the YB gene, but I bet somewhere along development it just decided "you know what...I wanna be a Pied!...and so thats what you get on hatch day":O

That's amazing! To me it looks like a yellowbelly with ivory paradoxing? Is that even a word? Congrats on a crazy snake! :bow:

I would call it a keeper. For sure hold that girl back and breed her to a normal male. If all yb come out it's an ivory if you get yb and normal it's a yb. This is one I would of wished was male just to breed to multiple females.
