I think I understand what you're asking - because the hets are busy patterned, despite dad being reduced, you're wondering how much that busy pattern is going to influence your clowns, correct?


I'm not personally sure, I can only hope for my breeding plans that the reduced pattern of normal females can assist in the reduced pattern of the clowns (since the bulk of my normal girls are all very reduced, as well as Oliver, my 100% het clown boy in this thread: http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...204#post458204 )

Have you had a chance to talk with Sean and ask him what his thoughts are? I know that he posted to a thread here not too long about about reduced clowns and how to selectively breed for them.
