    Super fire and super black pastel

    I have a pairing this year that will have the possibility of hitting a super fire and super black pastel in the same snake. I was just wondering if anyone knows what happens in a situation like that? My guess is still a white snake but I’m not positive so figured I’d see if anyone knows. I’d love for it to be a black snake with a huge white ringer but I think I might have a better chance for that if I hit super black pastel and just fire. There is also orange dream and mojave in the mix so I have a lot of possibilities. I’m pretty excited about this pairing either way but let me know if you have any ideas what happens when you hit a double super like that.

    Usually with a white snake it doesn't matter what other genes are in the mix, the snake is still white. Sometimes you can tease out a pattern using a black light or UV light. The only way to know for sure is to grow it up and prove it out. Most people with that mix would sell a white snake as a super fire, possible super black pastel possible orange dream possible Mojave. Usually the price is about the same as a super fire because you can't guarantee the other genes are in there. It's actually a good way to buy a possible multi gene snake at a low cost and take a chance that you get something neat. I actually saw a super lesser for sale and both parents were het clown, could be the worlds first super lesser clown but was selling at a price of a super lesser.

    A double super in this case would be a BlkEL. The tendency for SuperFires to have blotches might mean you seem some dark patches but given the behaviours of BlkPastel my inclination is to think it will push toward a higher white SuperFire.

    Honestly, the best indicator that you hit the double would be if you get a duck-billed animal.
