    I'd like to thank Piet Nuyten for giving me a chance to get in on this project. He's got some amazing snakes. Gotta deal with international shipping though but if you can afford it I highly recommend him. http://www.albinoblackheadpython.com/

    They all look great. I've never heard of white wash ball pythons. Can you tell me more about them. Eg how to produce them etc. Thank you.

    whitewash is a new simple ressessive gene discovered by Piet Nuyten in the Netherlands. They were working on a vpi snow project and had weird paradoxism going on in the babies and it turns out there was an unknown gene at work. It's basically an inheritable paradox. It's a gene scrambler. I'm not sure if they have been able to separate the whitewash gene yet 100% as separating three ressessive genes is a daunting task but it's been proven genetic over the last few years. I'm pretty sure it's not in worldofballpythons.com yet because they haven't separated the gene yet. The only way to produce is to buy hets or visuals from Piet. I don't think anyone else in the world has a pair of breeding size whitewashes and has produced babies yet. He just started selling a few last season and only a couple to the US. I may have the only pair of visuals in the US. So everything I produce will be visuals.

    ***Be careful*** You may develop a wicked obsession that drives you to do crazy things. Haha I've only been back into balls since summer and by the time my last aquisition (until I produce a few and sell a few) must be attained to start my soon-to-be business I'll have spent an obscene amount of money on 9 ball pythons. After I finish up paying off my fire clown and whitewash pair I have to get a male black pastel pied. Then I'll be done for a lil while. Let the bank account go back up a bit. Hopefully I'll produce a snow high axanthic/whitewash cause that would pay for everything AND a vacation. Haha

    I hear ya. I was going to breed balls, gtp's and ATB'S BACK in 2009 but I broke my heel, couldn't work for almost a year and had massive hospital bills so I had to sell everything:(

    Yeah, I can't wait till she's paid off. She's over 400 grams so she's got a good start. I'm really excited about my whitewash pair though. Not cheap but could possibly pay off all my expenses to date and put my fledgling business in the green with a single high expression whitewash.

    It's definitely an investment but nothing like trying to get into the scaleless or sunset projects. A pair of sunset hets is 30k. But hey, high risk yields results when done right.

    It's also a triple ressessive project so it's price will stay steadier then a new Co dom. Especially when I add codom's and more ressessive's into the mix...fire and pastel clown, black pastel piebald, ghi, banana...ect. Or imagine a lavender snow whitewash combo? That would buy you a whole lot of steaks from costco. Haha

    It's official! When my whitewash pair is fully paid off in the next month I will be the owner of the ONLY visual pair in these united states of America. I can barely contain my excitement right now. I knew only a few visuals and hets had made it over from Piet's first batch but no visual pairs so I could conceivably be the first person in the states to get whitewash visuals on the market.

    the normal looking one is actually a visual triple ressessive. Wildtype snow/whitewash. Snow (axanthic + albino) + the whitewash gene that scrambles the snow. My male is axanthic albino/whitewash. So they both are visual for albino, axanthic and whitewash.

    I just don't know if I should try to separate the whitewash gene or just take it into new combos and wait for Piet cause he's hoping to isolate it this year or next.
