    Normals or not?
    I just bought these 2 snakes as normals today. But they have some crazy patterns and colors, just wanted to double check with you guys.

    First is the female, she has some really dark colors and nice pattern ( she's currently shedding):

    Now here's the male:

    The female has the Harlequin-esque wide side stripes, and the male has the typical 'het pied marker' but both are normals. :gj:

    You guys think if I hit the female normal (when she's ready to breed) to another normal, will her pattern dominate? Like will I get babys looking like her?

    Amir might know.

    The only way to know is to breed her and find out.

    They are definitely some nice dinkers! It's odd that they both have clear bellies-not that it means anything-just most normals have messy bellies. That female is definitely nice! She has a nice reduced pattern.

    Dare I say it.... She has a broken stripe, and her pattern reflects a striped snake.... :confused: good luck with her. I would definitely call her an "odd ball" :gj:

    She might be genetic. This girl pictured with her daughter is.

    Worth a try just in case.

    Watever
    Re: Normals or not?
    They look normal.

    Well actually, they are normal until proved otherwise ;)

    But yeah, usually some the pattern etc... are genetic. Doesn't mean the offsrping will have but they have a chance of.

    Like your hair, some are curly, others are straight etc... when you mix them, it can be curly or straigt depending on the parents. Well it's kinda like that.

    Nice. Those are some nice snakes. But are those a type of morph or just really nice normals?

    Half her babies get her wide dark pattern (like the "normal" in this thread) and dark iridescence so it appears to be a single some sort of dominant type gene. I don't know yet what two copies of this gene will look like.

    You never know until you try. i got two females with patterns that look pretty close to yours. The one produced some babies that looked kinda wierd but not to moms degree.

    Oh. ok. Man I hope she produces some babys like her. Just gonna have to wait and see. I'm thinking about hitting a black pastel to her. It might come out with some nice looking babies.
