Harlequin Wide-Stripe

[Robyn@SYR]

This is where it turned weird a couple of years ago. We started hatching out stuff from this same Double Het Ghost PE Stripe line that started looking like Tri Stripes.

And the best one yet, hatched in 2010:


Now I REALLY don't know what is going on : )

So this came from breeding double het PE Stripe/Hypos?! WOW! Makes me consider breeding our "harlequin" girl with our male hypo next season instead of a yellowbelly and holding on to the clutch.

The best "plain" PE Stripes appear like this:

On the VMS Website, they are listed as a co-dominant mutation with a super form called "Side-stripe."

Do you think your snake could be a super form of the wide-stripe?

You had said that you sometimes produce these (harlequins/PE's) without the stripe... I'm wondering, could the Double het Ghost PE Stripes have been a co-dom PE stripe(not showing the stripe) het ghost as opposed to having double het animals? And this animal pictured is in fact a super form of the PE Stripe/harlequin, 66% pos het ghost?

Haha I'm reaching here but its the only way I can piece it together that makes any sense... unless theres more than one line being played with here, yours being recessive and others being co-dom or polymorphic or what-have-you.

Maybe I'm confused on what the breeding was that produced that snake, if I'm reading right it was Double het Ghost PE Stripe x Double het Ghost PE Stripe?

Yes, the Ghost PE Stripe is from a Double Het Ghost PE Stripe to Double Het Ghost PE Stripe, where both parents look normal.

And the Tri-Stripes as well?
