    any body with experience id'ing chcocolate please feel free to chime in.

    Also finally tracked down alittle more info(not sure of the info 100% )but the mother was purchased out of a bin at hamburg as a import it was this guys first
    ball python and he couldnt get it to eat that is why he sold it,he was told that it looked chocolate when he purchased it thats why he sold it as a chocolate.
    he said it was $100 dollars when he bought it.
    well i am not sure if anyone had a bin of imports at hamburg but i do love the hatchlings and will be holding them back to see what is going on with them.
    if it turns out to be nothing atleast i got a mojave out of the deal and another breeder female.i think she would make nice yellowbellies so her next breeding might be put to a yellowbelly next time she breeds.
    If anyone was selling imports at hamburg please contact me would love to find out as much about this female as possible.
    thanks

    This is an awesome thread. The look chocolatey to me but I don't own any so I am no expert. Looks like you still need another normal female :P

    And yes they can still hatch. Females can make copies of themselves, lay eggs, and the eggs will hatch (all babies will be female). However that is definitely not the case because there is a mojo in the mix. I cannot think of what this is called, but it happened at least once this year so far on this site.



    Edit:
    It's called parthenogenesis
