How Many Morphs are There?

[snakesams]

Has anybody out there done the math on how many Morph combinations are possible? This video has 160 listed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpN8psPechI

, but I know there are more possibilities than that. I just don't know enough about ball genetics yet to figure it out myself. Just wondering if anybody had tried.

check out world of ball pythons they have a morph list and i think thats almost every morph ever made and some that i have never heard of but ya check that out count that then come back and let me know lol

[snakesams]

Thanks. I will check it out. lol

Man!!!!! I counted to 250 and I wasn't past C in the alphabet yet. That's crazy. I figured it was some crazy high number. That should keep people busy for a while. lol

ya thats wat i thought but i look at some of those and they dont have pictures and i have never heard anyone talk about them which makes me think they are not real but you could say that a normal that you but from petco that has a cool looking pattern that doesnt look like the others is something special but its not its just a normal like my normal girl she has only 5 breaks in the stripe going down her back but that doesnt make her special she is still a normal bp

Yep, I know some of them haven't even been created yet. But that is one amazing number of possible combinations. No one really knows what some of them will look like either, and with some of the amazingly beautiful Balls out there now, I just wish I had the room and the money to really get into them. Oh well, I will just have to enjoy looking at pics,lol.

You never know what you'll be able to accomplish unless you try! I used to think I'd never be able to afford to have any morphs that were able to create some of my favorite combinations ever. But I have 5 BP's now which I got at very low prices for what they are, and the time in which I got them. Even just the few that I have will eventually make me probably 2 handfuls of combinations.

With about 60 identified base mutations, and then all the endless combination possibilities - we will NOT see all the possibilities in our lifetime.

And with more new base mutations probable in the future, you are probably right. Got to the the reptile with the most morphs, that is for sure. Lots of eye candy to look forward to.

this is a very good point i started with a normal then a cinny then i got my pastel and spider and those 4 right now will give me future possibilities for 7 or 8 different morphs but i plan on buying alot of hets so i can make my own albinos in the future
