    Re: This is what I don't understand about Ball Python Genetics

    Well since there is over 100 base morphs and only a handful of them lay on the same locus (locus is where 2 alleles lay, you get one allele form mom, one from dad) There are at the very least 80 or so different loci controlling color we know about and i think it would be dumb not to assume there is many many more. "Normal" is a combination of those possibly hundreds of loci, while pastel just lays on a single locus.
