    There are numerous threads on this exact subject, he hasn't released to genetics yet, but if you read all his birthing records from 1999, you would know.

    Who cares anymore, the original wow factor wore off pretty fast for me. It's gonna cost $900,000 anyways LOL. I can't stand when people do that crap, just say what it is. He is obviously the first to produce it so just take the credit and fill in the rest of the herpers with the genetics...

    I'd sincerely say it's gotta be not only Super pastel (because of the colors) Clown (because of the head pattern) and Genetic stripe (self explanatory)...but I could be wrong.

    I think Ralph calls it a Flateline because when you look at it your heart flatlines

    That was my exact thought when I saw it too. But being that it's Ralph Davis, it's probably got alittle more to it than that.

    Ralph doesn't produce snakes the way Kevin does.
    Ralph's combos are not 5, 6, 7... genes.
    I'm going to go with Enchi, Lesser, Clown.
    Maybe not but that's what it looks like to me.

    I bet you that Ralph has combos with 5, 6, 7... genes. I think that one of the biggest differences is that they each have there own unique flavors and I think that maybe Ralph keeps better records of what he's creating. Not for sure but it seams like Kevin just throws stuff together and doesn't keep very accurate records. Who knows it could just be a front that Kevin puts up. Besides they can't tell every one what every thing is or has in it. Those are secrets of the trade.
    Most businesses take secrets of the trade very serious.

    Why do they do it? So people won't come through in a few years and produce 30 of these animals that they put some much work into and control the market on and crash prices. I get that people like to own all these snakes, but as collectors we have to respect that these people do this for a living and do need to make money to keep popping out these absolutely ridiculous animals. Do I wish they'd reveal everything...of course I do, but I respect they're business(a smart one at that) to not do such.

    Re: wow - what is that Ralph davis snake ?
    I dont think ther is g-stripe in there. Desert clown and pastel clown has already been done and would thus be easy to combine. The desert clown has basically the same back pattern without the reduced head pattern. Pastel would turn up the yellow and pastel clowns have the reduced head pattern as well.
    I think if someone had produced a G-stripe clown we would have seen that double recessive up for sale before this.

    It looks like what a bumblebee clown should look like imo considering what the spider clown looks like: http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/clown-spider/

    I guess there could be something else in it, but that's what I think it is.

    Google "champagne pastel calico ball python" and you will get an animal with a stripe similar to the one in the video (minus the neon yellow color). Hmmmm....

    You're right! The spider clown's pattern looks really close but without the yellow. Maybe it is a super pastel spider clown! That yellow is really intense!

    Eh, I'm thinking no on the super. The black is too dark. Were it super pastel in there I'd expect it to be a quite faded grey, and the yellow to be lighter.

    Look at BHB's ad on fauna or other sites... he has a simular one there. It is just a different color. And I have seen clowns that are bread for reduced pattern have close the that stripe by it's self. SO I'm guessing.......

    Reduced pattern clown, enchi and desert. But I still don't think that would get that yellow.. blah...




    I WANT TO KNOW!!:please::please::please:

    okay so i was looking around for something that has that really intense banana yellow in it and i just realized that the dreamsicle that ralph produced also has that yellow in it soooo is there any possible way that he could have thrown a dreamsicle into the mix?

    LOL, yeah, evey mom and pop that happen to have two snakes of opposite sex with all those genes that are both het clown will be producing them next year. Getting all those codom genes combined with a recessive gene is no small undertaking.

    There is NO Desert in there, we talked with a couple other breeders who talked with Ralph and he wouldn't tell what it was but he said there is no Desert in there. :gj: I'm thinking it's an Enchi Clown with another gene on top that he just proved out. :rolleye2:
