VPI Axanthic meaning
Question! (I searched and did not find a definitive answer)
I know what Axanthic is in a BP - basically the lack of the yellow coloring of a normal BP but I have seen VPI Axanthic listed in adds for sales and have not been able to find out what the VPI stands for.
Is that a simple indication of the snake being HET? Is that the specific breeding line of the snake??
Any explanation is greatly appreciated

Re: VPI Axanthic meaning
VPI is Vida Precisosa International... A Breeder that had the founding animal of this particular Axanthic.
It's their line.
As for hets, there is no indicator other than a TRUSTWORTHY breeder telling you it is. There are no real outward signs.
The meaning of Het means that it carries the genes to express the trait if bred to another animal that is carrying the same gene.

Re: VPI Axanthic meaning
VPI stands for Vida Preciosa International. They are a breeder of ball pythons and the reason that those snakes are labeled as "VPI axanthics" is because they are from their line of axanthics.
I believe (and I could be wrong on this) that the different lines of axanthics (Snake Keeper, NERD, VPI etc...) are for the most part not compatible with each other. That is why they are labeled as to which line they come from.
Hope this helps! (TM Adam Wysocki )

Does NERD have a line of their own? I only knew of three * save for the reds* Jolliff is the other though.

NERD does, but I think it has been found compatible with other lines... (Not 100% on that one though)
So as I see it, there is VPI, TSK and Jolliff, with NERD on the side
