Is it out yet?

This really does seem to be the year of the paradox!

It is really interesting that this snake came from a mojave x normal pairing. There is a paradox ivory posted on Kingsnake that is supposed to have come from a ivory x normal pairing.

I learned of its existence in this post from Randy Remington. He has some interesting things to say about chimeras.

My (very uneducated) guess is that these snakes might not be chimeras, but might be from when the chromosomes don't divide properly. In humans, people can be born who are either XXY or XYY instead of XX or XY. People who do have these extra chromosomes can have some weird sexual traits that aren't normal for males or females.

I could see if a snake got 2 yellowbelly genes from its dad, and one normal gene from its mom, it could easily look like a paradox ivory. However, this doesn't explain how you'd get a paradox BEL out of mojave x normal, since the dad didn't have 2 mojave genes in the first place.
