Ghost morph

[gayal]

May I know if a ball python is purchased as a Hypo and it is bred to an Orange Ghost, would the babies be just het Hypo het Orange Ghost? Or would there be visual Ghost ball babies? Thank you for any help rendered in clearing my confusion.

Hypo is short for hypomelanistic. In most cases, hypo and Orange Ghost are the same thing, so you would have a chance to produce visual ghosts. In some cases however, certain lines or ghosts will not be compatible with others.

Generally if its just labelled as hypo/ghost it's safe to assume that it's an orange ghost, as that's the most common line. Other lines are generally labelled as such.
