    What are the odds of a snake retaining sperm from a codom lsser and throwing 6 normals and all females?
    The clutch had 7 snakes but one died crawling out of the egg.
    Theoretically possible, very highly unlikely.

    More likely than you think. We bred a Lesser to Mojo this year and our results were 1 BEL, 4 normals, and 3 Fires.....she was bred to a Fire in 2011/12. Not a single Mojo or Lesser in the clutch for 2012/13 other than the BEL.

    Even less likely is a clutch we had in 2011 of 10 eggs from Pied x het Pied......3 Pieds, all males.....and 6.1 hets. It happens.

    BTW, nice looking snakes, especially those banded "normals/yb"?

    Thanks Brandon!
    I know it is possible, but I'm stumped by the fact the don't look like normals either.
    And all so similar looking and similar to the Ivory males offspring that I posted.
    The Ivory's come from some very hot yellowbellys, so I was completely thrown off by what I got in this clutch.

    Here is the male sRk line yellowbelly, he's my founding male for this line.
    He passed away very unexpectedly before the babies he sired hatched :(

    This is the female yellowbelly that produced the Ivory that sired those odd babies.

    This is a sister to the ivory's, I was really hoping to produce more yb's like this ...

    I have the Ivory male breeding a different normal female this season and a pinstripe, hoping to figure something out, LOL
