    Highway and Yellow Belly cross

    What type of Ivory would come from a male Highway and female Yellow Belly? I'm still not familiar with all of the correct names. The breeder told me once and I cant remember anything more than my snake is an Ivory and the parents.

    Re: Highway and Yellow Belly cross

    It's a bit complicated.

    highway is yellowbelly/ gravel

    If you snake is as ivory ( super yellow belly ) then every offspring would be yellowbelly. I think that makes the result;


    50% Ivory ( super yellowbelly ) and 50% highway ( yellow belly/gravel ).

    I could, however be dead wrong so wait for confirmation.

    Right on. I'm going to contact the breeder also. I got him from Wilbanks Reptiles. Just thought I might get a quicker response here. Thanks for your input!

    Your info is correct but I think you misunderstood what he was asking. If I understand correctly he's looking for an ID on his snake which could only be Ivory(super yb) if the parents were highway(gravel yb) x yb. With that pairing you can get 4 outcomes, gravel, yb, highway and Ivory. So his snakes genetics could only be Ivory(super yb).
