    Exactly

    I am hoping to prove him out as a Pinstripe. I don't see why he wouldn't be.

    ... I think it depends on how the paradox thing works on a genetic level, and I don't think we totally know. (I tried to ask this extremely unfriendly genetics prof what he thought ... He totally and completely blew off my question. )

    I think the most logical explanation is that they're basically a chimera, where two genetically distinct babies start to form separately, then fuse together to make a single snake. If that's the case, then whichever snake went to forming the gonads would determine what type of offspring the paradox can throw. I've heard of a couple of "paradox albinos" proving out to be only "hets" when bred. To me, the most logical explanation for that is that it was really a chimera, and the het sibling was the one that got the gonads, not the albino.

    ... But then again, they might not be chimeras, they might be something totally different! ... Maybe some day we'll get to do some DNA analysis on them and really find out.

    That's pretty cool! You'll have to post more pictures so we can see the paradox spot better .
