    Kalabash reduction gene present?

    I bought a couple of ball pythons from Tropical Tom Parker, arguably the leading breeder of Kalabash morph ball pythons is the world.
    I bought an Enchi Kalabash het pied, and a pastel het pied. This thread is about the pastel het pied. Tom had several pastel het pieds for sale, and this one was the most expensive of his collection due to the extreme reduced pattern. The more I look at this animal, the more I think it carries the Kalabash gene.
    I emailed the breeder, Tom Parker about it, to ask if this female had any Kalabash parents, but he just said, “I will check”, and then forgot and never got back to me.
    Check out these extreme Kalabash like-patterns in her black bands, and no spots! I searched all of morph market for single-gene pastels and not a single ONE had such a reduced pattern.

    What do you all think?
