Scaleless BP

[pingure]

I was surfing the web for dif pyhons and saw a scaleless bp. does anyone know if this is something there triyng to prove genetic?

I'm not sure if anyone is trying to breed them or not. I'd imagine not, because if I remember correctly, unlike scaleless corns, the ball python had some associated "defects" - namely, it didn't have heat pits.

I have no idea if it impacted the snake at all or not, but ever since it was discovered, I haven't heard about it or any plans with it.

I remember seeing what they called the derma ball. But I don't think it was a desired trait. I don't think it would be to healthy.

There's also the purple haze, I don't think theres been anything public about them since their discovery. There are other scaleless animals are in demand namely bearded dragons (we have one) and corn snakes and the thrive in captivity just fine.

Silkbacks are some very unique and beautiful creatures. Eventually I would like to care for one, but I think one beardie at a time is more than enough for me. The scaleless corns are amazing! The only time I've ever seen them are from watching snakebytes TV on YouTube. I would imagine a scaleless BP would be fascinating, unless of course there is an undesirable trait.

Eugene reported that the Purple Haze died. I believe he's still working with the genetics that produced it.

Eugenes scaleless died a while ago. If im not mistaken, he had been.pairing the same snakes over and over again to see if anything happens again, but it hasnt. I know at one point he was selling a sibling, or maybe even the father (im not sure) for cheap.

IF the scaleless BP was genetic defect free, it would be an amazing, very profitable thing to work with. However, as mentioned, there have been issues.

Being scaleless however would not be a concern, seeing as the other types of reptiles are fine.

They suspect that the scaleless was not a genetic thing but instead an incubation defect. Which is why is may not be reproduced for a while.

I know of a scaleless BP project going on, but I'm not at liberty to say. Aren't I just evil?

But really, be excited.
