King of Dinkers update...

So what are you thinking, recessive gene or some new unidentified combination? Couldn't be a dom or codom, could it? Either way, I would love to get my hands on some of those babies.

Awesome. Let me guess, you'll be posting a picture of him with a female Clown next?

Hard to say, I feel it's recessive but we won't know until I start getting babies. I don't think it's an unidentified combo as there weren't that many genes involved in the breeding that produced him. It could be a spontaneous dominant gene, I know it's a long shot but I think any scenario is.

That won't happen. I'm the one breeder that doesn't work with clown stuff anymore.

Not a hybrid at all. Check out the other photos I posted here or on Facebook, he's obviously 100% ball python. I know both the breeders that I got the parents from, no history of hybrids at all.

No worries, it's all part of the deal. The reactions and comments have been overwhelmingly positive so far. I've seen hybrids but none that look like him. Steve Roussis works with blood/ball crosses and they look very different. I've also seen photos of angolan/ball hybrids and none look similar.

You may be thinking of the carpet/green tree python crosses as some of those have pretty wacky patterns.

Yes the blood mix is the one I'm looking to get I belive they dub it the ultimate ball or mega ball, something silly. maybe be petteren I came across is one of yours mislabeled on someone's redit or Pinterest when I look at Google images it pulls from all over and I find mislabeled snakes all the time.
