Black Back ball python

[OhhWatALoser]

I remember reading something on RDR's site that said black/brown backs were essentially het "het reds" since Het Red seems to atctually be a visual morph. This morph never made sense to me because a het red is a visual and the red axanthic would be the super form. So wouldnt it just be a Red Axanthic and a Super Red?

Het = Heterozygous in short meaning 1 gene
Homozygous in short means having 2 genes (genes comes in pairs of 2)

So het red axanthic has 1 gene and the red axanthic has both genes. Pastel, Lesser, Cinny, ect. are all heterozygous aka hets. all morphs are heterozygous or homozygous, doesn't matter if their visual or not, dom, co-dom, or recessive.

I have a black back female normal that I bred to a black back cinnie and produced black back cinnies and black back normals. So at the very least, the offspring are genetic. I'll have to breed both of them to other animals this season to see if they both are genetic or if just one of them was the dominant one.

So when you bred your BB did you also get non-BB animals in the same clutch?
