[Python-77]

Here are a few pics of my new reduced pattern male bp, I have had him for 2 weeks now he is now settled in and ate prekilled on tues so I took an oppertunity to snap a few of him.

Very nice snake Sean! The pattern towards the tail is beautiful. I love it!

I'm still trying to learn differnt terms, so can someone explain what reduced pattern means?

He's gorgeous by the way!

I am likin' his pattern!
"Reduced" means simply, few or no black dots in the brown areas, as well as large "stretches" of brown instead of "alien head" shaped areas on normal BPs.

Now is a reduced pattern worth more than a normal bp. The only reason i ask is because I plan on breeding in a year or two and my bp is a reduced pattern.

Sean he's gorgeous or handsome LOL if that's more appropriate for a male snake! Glad to read that his first feed with you went so well.

How do you genetically prove it without a breeding history? I think mine is a reduced pattern and I plan on breeding in a year or two. I got my snake from petco so I am currently unsure of the sex and age. And please no comments about petco mine is in an acceptable condition.

Unless it came from a breeder selling it as a reduced pattern that can show you the parents than the only way to prove it is thru breeding. Not slamming petco, but they get there snakes from a distributor who gets them from a importer or imports them, so the only way to prove it will be thru breeding.
