calico pied???

okay so i was just laying in bed thinking about ball pythons that i wanna get and than i started thinking about morphs that arent real and i was wondering if anyone out there has made or is trying to make a calico pied (if its even possible, im not that good at genetics)...

so if anyone has a picture of one if theres even one out there i would love to see it and if there out there what is the price on them?



thanks for reading,

mike

im not into breeding & dont even have a bp yet (have to save up for it) but i personally think that calico's & pieds are awesome varieties. put 'em together...that would make a beautiful snake.

I was just thinking the other day that I'd like to see that morph. I'd especially like to see Dan Wolfe or somebody with Flora & Fauna line calicos do it, since those seem to make particularly wonky, high-color pastel calico mixes.

(...ooooooh, pastel calico pied.)

I believe I saw one in a kingnsnake ad but it was just a picture put into a want ad. It didn't specify what the snake was but I would bet money that it is. I saved the pic on my other computer, maybe I'll dig it up and post, see what you guys think. I'm sure it has been done. ~Caylan.S.~

If you are talking about the wanted ad posted by Dynasty reptiles, then that morph is a crazy ringer. I called Chun myself and asked him.

I never claim to know what someting will look like, but in my mind, it won't be a very amazing cross. Here is the reason. The white on Calicos is generally situated near the belly on the sides of the snake. Saddles on a Pied are normally situated on the dorsum and higher portion of the sides. With that said, I think that the Calico Pied would look like a normal Pied, with some brighter coloring in the saddles. Now, if the cross ends up on a 10% or less Pied ( the ones that have pattern all the way down the side), then you may be able to get some white in the pattern. On the other hand, with the white on a Calico in the same place as the white on a Spider, the white may be dominant and you may end up with an all white snake with a brightly colored head.

Those are just my opinions,

I think it would be pretty cool because a lot of pieds already have a tendency towards high color saddles with tons of orange ANYWAY; and some calico lines when combined with other morphs produce some pretty wacky colors.

I'm here on the same search...Raising up 1.1 Calico Paint het for Pied,and a yearling Paint het Pied girl. So perhaps they will answer it for me soon, or bring forth more questions. :)

I while back someone on kingsnake classifieds had a "wanted" ad for one. I contacted him and he said they do exist, but I have yet to see any pics. I also contacted Ralph Davis a few years back and he didn't think they existed then, but thought they would be "kick ass"!

Any update on this? I also had this lightbulb go off

incredible possabilities!!

I've wondered myself. Only other thread I could find with any "helpful" info was someone who hatched het pieds and everyone was twisted.

i wish a Calico (or Sugar) Pied would have the white flecks they are known for in their pattern. i'm afraid however it's pattern/white flecks would not be retain much like a G-Stripe or Clown Pied doesn't have much of it's non-Pied pattern. but then again, i've never seen one.

Found some gorgeous calico YB het pieds. Def curious as to what the outcome will be.
