I remember a case of Burmese python parthenogenesis in a European zoo where the embryos (some whacked zoo policy prevented allowing them to hatch) where all female clones of mom. The article commented on that being unusual as at the time parthenogenesis had been seen in some viper where apparently a random half of the moms genetic material was doubled and only the ZZ sons where viable (interesting about the WW female boas surviving in the wiki link). So apparently two types of parthenogenesis are known in snakes.

Congrats on hatching these as I've seen several reports like this through the years where i suspected the clutch was lost due to inexperience with incubation. Would be great if could eventually find a grad student to do some testing of mom and babies for a paper to see if these are the clone type or the fully homozygous type. You could also perhaps find a local breeder here to sex them for you and if any males might explain the problems as fully homozygous animals might expose a few bad genes from mom.

I suspect parthenogenesis might happen fairly often in ball pythons, perhaps even when males are present, but most are quick to dismiss the possibility. Could explain the occasional unexpected phenotype result in morph breedings.
