Not sure exactly what I have.
I bought this from a herp show. The breeder wasn’t exactly sure what it was. I know it is a piebald.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4ea2be0117.jpg

I’m not looking to breed him he’s my pet, he eats great and has a good temperament. He just stood out of the thousands of snake I looked at, I have people ask me what morph of ball python he is but the breeder said she wasn’t exactly sure it was her first time breeding.

Sorry, I just didn’t know what possible het clown was. I looked up the terms, but I wasn’t sure if this a pied clown or possible pied clown. If this was your snake and someone asked you what kind of ball python it was, what would you say?

Het means heterozygous = one copy of a recessive genetic trait. One of its parents was albino and passed a single copy of that mutation which does not express itself visually.
Possible het means one of the parents was heterozygous for clown and there is a possibility the offspring inherited a single copy, which also would not present itself visually.
Time to do some research into Mendelian genetics and work through some punnet squares.
would this specimen be considered “double Het” or “poss triple Het”?
