    I know quality of the pairs is important. How important though? Does it determine what the offspring look like 50% of the time? 70%?

    100% of the time. These morphs are breed and the best looking ones are breed and so on for many, many years to produce a great looking example. So if u start with the best u can expect the best outcome. Same for the opposite.

    I mean is that what the breeding community claims or is it based on science? Let’s say we don’t have access to science. Has been replicated enough to become fact or is there sufficient room for mutations? Forgive my skepticism but literally every single breeder’s bio is “breeding high quality ball pythons” or “building a high quality collection” and so on.

    Will a “low-white” piebald ever create a high-white piebald? Will a terrible quality pastel ever create a high-quality one if bred to a normal?
