That's what I've heard but I would need someone far more advanced in genetics than me to explain how that's possible from two single gene parents and if a super form can try to express lacking half the equation. If anyone can chime in it would be much appreciated. I know we have some members very well versed in genetics

I know mojave and butter/lesser are in the same family of genes but that python has no ear marks of a mojave, color, keyholes, etc. Have you emailed NERD on this one. If not I would. I am super interested to follow this guy as you breed him. What a great project!
X2 definitely

I was considering emailing NERD as well since both are from their lines. Here are photos of the pairing and both pairings:

Thank you! I am thinking the WTF Eraser after our namesake WTF MORPHS lol We are so happy we got a WTF (him) in our first year!

I will definitely be keeping everyone up to date with this project. Until I prove him out (and the parents) I will be calling him a WTF Paradox Mojave since that is the most likely scenario although I completely agree that he is a one of a kind Paradox. He is truly impressive in person, with the description that "someone took an eraser" to him is very accurate in describing his pattern and washout effect. I held him back and his sister Jigsaw. I'll be repeating the pairing as well as putting him back to mom just to see if I have something weird going on in the genetics of these guys!
Thanks again for the support and kind words everyone, much appreciated!
