Thanks for the information! I know on the NERD site they had most of the dominate mutations listed as dominate with a TBD besides it, so i figured if they where going to list it as Dominate instead of Co-Dom, there must have been some kind of discernment that made them do so. Guess not...
Does anybody have pics of Het Red Axanthic or Red Axanthic, if Red Axanthic even exist?
And correct me if I'm wrong but the het. red axanthic is het for black backs...
Alright, you're wrong.
Het reds are a co-dom mutation, the homozygous Red Axanthic is obviously the super and does exist.
Proven by Corey Woods.
Google it. I don't post pictures that don't belong to me and my het red female is in shed.

That's what I was thinking haha... but I remember someone selling them and saying that het. red axanthics will make nice black backs.... I was a little confused... but I know that het. red axanthics are blackbacks so I don't really know why I said that last post... I'm an idiot haha

I think some use the term "dominant" for something like "we know it's not recessive and is some sort of dominant". Sort of a holding area while we find out if it's co-dominant or not. But now that pinstripe has been proven completely dominant it's a little confusing. I tend to throw the word "completely" in front of dominant for an animal like pinstripe where the homozygous looks like the heterozygous mutant but I'm not sure that's the best way. It might be better if the holding category was just changed to "some type of dominant" and just "dominant" was reserved for the proven animals of which I believe pinstripe is the only ball python and even that is still very new and based only on BHB's reptile radio interview.

Randy, Maybe the term "visually dominant " could be considered for mutations like the Pinstripe -- i.e. when he super form looks he same as the base morph.
