Bumblebee Morph

Hello everyone! Happy November to you all! Today I'm going to be talking about a new kind of morph. This is the Bumblebee Ball Python and this is a Two-Gene Morph

Two-Gene Morph

So what is a two-gene morph? Well two-gene morphs are basically what is says on the tin. A two-gene morph animal contains two genes, or two basic morphs, that are both visibly expressed on the snake. An example of this is sort of like the Super thing that I talked about last week. "Super" morphs are what happens when the co-dominate gene is expressed twice, almost as if they were separate genes. However, supers are not considered to be two-gene morphs the theory is the same. 

TL:DR A baby snake has a special gene from mommy and a different special gene from daddy that combine to make a super awesome looking snake.

And that leads us too.....

The Bumblebee Morph



So the bumblebee morph is a lovely animal that is a mix of two morphs I've talked about in the past, the Spider morph and the Pastel morph. (Both of which I have so this may be a future breeding project for me.) This morph can be recognized by having the lovely pattern of the spider morph but the bright yellow of the pastel, normally with high sections of white up the side of the snake. They do have a bit of a wobble because they do have the spider in them but it is not normally as pronounced as the spiders tend to have

Well thats all for this week. See you next weekend. Night!
