    Well...

    No.

    A TRUE Ghost is an Axanthic Hypo

    A Ghost or a Hypo are the same thing, but with different lines, including Yellow, Butterscotch, Green, Blue, Orange and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few more. Most lines are compatible.

    That sucks. Are there any others that aren't compatible with one another? I'd just really wanna know this so I can be selective about the lines I grab when I finally get around to my ghosts, and I don't want to get two that aren't compatible lol.

    Most of the Green lines that I have heard of are not compatible with other lines.

    Ghost is a trade name of a Hypo Ball Python, widely accepted in the reptile community. Hypo is a discription of the Ghost morph....Hypomelanistic.

    Ghost is the same thing as a Hypo. I believe that Hypo just refers to the actual mutation. More people have been adopting calling them "Hypos" after the "True Ghost" hit the scene. [A Hypo Axanthic]

    Graziani seems to have a line of a lot of things that aren't compatable with anything else :D

    so if you have, say, a green ghost and breed it to a orange ghost, would you get both orange and green ghosts? or something in the middle?

    Someone tell me what they think this ghost line is..
    It actually looks greener in person but it's supposed to be orange.

    How about everyone that has ghosts post their pics up... hehe..
    I want to see the differences. Also, put the age.
    This one is going on 3 years and it supposed to be an orange.

    You should get animals that will take traits from one or the other. I have 2 female Hypos that are a product of Butterscotch crossed with Orange. They are from the same litter, however, one look smore like an orange, and one looks more like a Butterscotch. I think more outcomes would need to be published before anyone could come up with a definitive answer to that question.

    Hope that helps,
