Someone mentioned that all my Enchi/Het Clowns look alike... They are the same morph and some of them are clutchmates...so of course they will share similar characteristics.
I produced 3 clutches containing Enchi/Het Clowns in 2024. The first clutch had a more erratic and lower expression Enchi patterning (Photos #359, 360, 431, 447).
My 2nd and 3rd clutches had a 'cleaner' and 'higher' expression level and thus they made it into my dozen or so Enchi/Het Clown holdbacks.
I do have an issue with the Albino gene (not Lav Albino) hiding in my Enchi line (at below 50% Het probability). I'm fairly certain the two Enchis on the left in the photo below are carrying Albino.
I would like to take a photograph of all my Enchi holdbacks together, but as I mentioned previously: I have a difficult time managing more than 4 sub-adult ball pythons at a time.
+Fun fact: I counted 12 more holdback specimens to photograph for my 2024 set. Definitely going to break the '500' specimen photograph milestone.
