    butter/lesser

    So I was at the petstore today and I saw a " butter/lesser" ball python, and he was severely malnurished so I had ti get him. when I brought him home he was 45 grams. The lady sent he hadn't eaten in a month so I decided to assist feed. Anyway he obviously cannot be a butter/ lesser without being a blue eyed Lucy, correct? I believe he is just a butter, but input would be

    They meant butter or lesser, obviously they did not know hence the label, really does not matter since it's the same thing.

    Butter and lesser and essentially the same. The super form of the two is a BEL.

    No. Butter is not lesser. And lesser is not butter. They are in the same complex but different genes.

    Butter and Lesser are the same genetic mutation.
    They are called two different things because they are two different bloodlines of the *SAME* gene. Even their original founders have stated that they're the same.

    Like saying Lemon pastel vs Citrus pastel. Still a pastel gene in the end regardless of bloodline. Same difference here regarding Lesser-Butter.
