Question on the Ghost gene

[PitOnTheProwl]

I dunno if this has already been said, But if it was a Male Banana male and Female Pastel het Ghost, then any babies including the one you got, would be HET for Ghost, if that. But no way possible of you having a ghost. Also I see no credibility in the breeder hatching out several ghosts in that clutch unless the male banana was also het for ghost?

Point, they would be POSSIBLE Het.

I said they would be het for ghost, if that. Poss het is the correct term, but that's still what I meant

If you don't mind me asking, was this purchased at the Taylor, Mi. show? Little bugger looks familiar.

I talked to the breeder again to clarify but the male was a pastel banana that was het for ghost and he did not know that until the clutch hatched out two ghosts. There is always the chance that mine is a super pastel and doesn't have the ghost gene at all. All that we know is that it looked very different and much paler than any of it's siblings.

Indeed it was. Bought it from Mark. Super nice guy.

Thought so. I'm the guy that's been setting up with Mark, and I was standing there when this was going on. If Tony (the guy that actually produced the snake) says he got ghosts out of that clutch then I have no trouble believing him, he's been at this a long time. And it did look like it had ghost in it to me, but I am admittedly a noob too, so that doesn't mean much. But I would have got that sucker if you hadn't, I have some ghost stuff I would have loved to put him to next year. All gets right now, sadly.

I wondered if that was you lol. I don't know if it is ghost or super pastel banana or just a pastel banana but I can't wait to find out. or maybe a super pastel banana ghost. (yea right) but I can dream lol.

Well it was a really nice looking snake regardless. Good luck with it.
