I am sure siblings and partial siblings should not be breed together? How many generations removed is ideal for breeding?
a lot of breeders breed babies back to their parents, siblings to siblings, etc. i'm not a breeder tho so i would leave this questions to someone experienced with breeding.

For you to have better odds of producing a BEL, as was already said, you would need one or both parents to be BEL. Mojave is one copy of a gene with the other copy being "normal". A BEL has 2 copies of that gene or that gene and a related gene on the same allele (like lesser).
Try the morph calculator on world of ball pythons website if you want to experiment with gene combinations. You will want to keep your current female for 1-2 years to allow her to grow before even purchasing a male.. Males take less time to mature than females do.
a BEL can refer to 1) a Black Eye Leucistic (BlackEL) or 2) Blue Eye Eye Leucistic (BlueEL) animal. the Super Mojo u are referring to is one type of BlueEL mostly distinguished by this light purplish to grey head and white body. BEL's can vary in white's and have hints of patterns depending on the animal genetics.

BEL's are plentiful including the females. they look great and are popular pets to keep and animals to work with. part of the reason for their higher prices is demand and part of the reason is that they are also supers or acts like super forms of their genetic morphs, so they won't produce normal, non-morph BP's.

Reason: ssspellingz
My 5 - 6 year old Mojave boy is completely browned out just as any other adult Mojave i've seen. There is no trace of what would have probably once been yellow to be found anywhere on him. It's a shame that so many (most) morphs have to fade out and/or brown with age...

I think when time comes I will do a BEL (Super Mojave) BEL (Super Mojave) pairing. That way the genetics are sure and true to the focus. I am learning so much.... YAY.
To bad my pinstripe is not part of the plan.... he is nice looking.
