it's why a Panda Pied is a rare, $10,000 snake. the deformities common in the super form of the Black Pastel and Cinnamons turn-off alotta folks. adding a recessive gene (the Piebald), makes the odds of having a flawless Super Black Pastel or Cinnamon Pied even harder. i see alotta Black Pastel and Cinnamon het Pieds, some visual Pieds, not alotta of their Supers, and never any Pandas.
we are not saying u should not try for a Panda. just know, be prepared and have a plan for babies with deformities as a byproduct.
i myself might still try for it. i teeter on the should i or should i not regularly on this plan. so well see...
Edit: also to add, i hear that Justin Kobylka is cooking up some Suma Pieds - which is believed to be all white with black patterning. it is supposed to be a kink free Panda. so adding a Mahogany or its super form - Suma, might be a better breeding route and investment.
