1.1 Tundra

We were lucky enough to hatch these two lookers this year, proving out a project we have been working on since 2009.

Since I can't seem to figure out how to embed images (even after reading the sticky instructions) here is our bpnet gallery.

Hey that is an awesome project, cant wait to see some combo's with that gene

It looks a lot like desert ghost to me, any idea on whether or not they're compatible? I suppose it's too soon to tell.

Here are the pictures:

They're beautiful! So pale. I really like the cougar like face markings one of them has.

The biggest difference thus far between these guys and DG is that these shed completely clear and from what we have gathered, DGs don't. It is still in early stages and we certainly can't rule anything out yet!

Also, thank you all for the comments!

Very pretty snakes. Would love to have one in my collection that's for sure.

Wow!!! They are super cool!

wow!! is this a new morph?

I love these Tundras! Is it just me or does the "normal" in the clutch have the same pattern as the two tundras?

Are they recessive? They look a lot like the Enhancer gene: http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/enhancer-ball/

They do appear to be a recessive morph, though many of the normal siblings do have very dirty bellies, high yellow, and clover shaped headspots much like the male pictured on the left. So it is possible that we are seeing a very subtle incomplete dominant mutation with the tundra being the super form.

The wild type in the group is from an unrelated clutch.

While it is possible we are dealing with a new line of existing morph, none of the similar ones share all of the characteristics so far. Only lots of time and breeding will tell.
