Butter VS Lesser and Their Combos??

[snakesRkewl]

Thanks guys, didn't want to derail this thread too much but my bf has an amazing lesser and I have an amazing butter and we'd really like to stick them together one day. Wanted to see others thoughts/opinions on it

I did do a butter X lesser pairing and produced 3 BEL's out of 6 eggs, 2 females and a male.
One female and the male turned out blind, no bug eyes, just blind as a bat.
We bred the male this season but he lost interest in breeding after a few locks with his cinny pewter girlfriend so I replaced him with our black back enchi male.

Personal opinion is this is a bad breeding, too many chances of bug eyes or like ours, blindness.
The blindness is not hereditary so it won't pass on, but no way will I make more BEL's with a lesser/butter pairing.

And contrary to my nooby responses back a couple of years, they are the same mutation, possibly different lines, but the same gene none the less.

So... when you pair a Lesser and a Butter, if you get any BEL's... will they be able to produce a normal?

I guess that would be the best way to determine if they are the same? Yes... No...?? What do you think?

I believe they are different and you can clearly see the little subtleties between them.



btw, go for the pastel lesser! They are the best!

Butter and lesser even if they are not EXACTLY the same(which they are imo) are allelic meaning they act like a super trait and will always throw a butter or a lesser, no normals.
All BEL making snakes are allelic.

A BEL is a Super, thus never making normals.

Lesser all the way! Gotta love a lesser.
