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?
