Anyone care to offer opinions on Harlequin Wide-Stripe Ball Pythons?

You like, dislike, show promise, etc?

I'm pretty darn sure that there is no single gene that causes that pattern to occur.

However I'm quite interested in selective breeding for pattern. Selective breeding really does work, but with something such as pattern, there are so many factors that you can't have drastic changes/improvement over a single generation(unlike selective breeding for a weird mutation, like most animals dubbed "morphs").

There is a great deal of potential for fully striped patterns, just like there is great potential for reduced patterns. However It really does look like whatever causes the stripe in the "wide stripe harlequin" isn't a single mutated gene.

This girl has NO black on her:




Also have another female, but don't have any current pictures of her. She's alot darker than the female pictured.
