    You know, I just saw this comment and I feel like pointing out whenever see the "no heat pits" assumption, I can't help but roll my eyes. The scales only define where the heat pits are on the animal's face but the the organ itself is made up of nerves/sensors under the skin and are not some kind of specialized scale. Just because they are no longer defined on the animal's face, doesn't mean they aren't there anymore. It's just like Sphynx cats who do not have whiskers, the hair follicles no longer grow the whisker but the nerves are still there and function just fine.

    Sorry for nitpicking this but it's just one of the silliest assumptions I have ever read about the scaleless BPs.

    I thought I saw a SnakebytesTV episode a little while back where Brian showed a ball python that was missing scales and he said he was hoping the super would prove out to be a scaleless.

    I was there a few months ago and he had some that are missing scales on the top of their heads. He has a few so I'm assuming its genetic. And he told me the same thing, hoping the super takes it to the next level.
