Leche Morph

Hello! In honor of the upcoming holidays, I've chosen to show you a light colored snake that reminds me of snow! This week I am talking about the

The Leche Morph

 

 

This is a two-gene designer morph that is characterized by a white or silver snake with tan markings along the spine with the normal side markings being a lighter color. The Leche Morph is a mix of two co-dom genes, the Phantom and the Mocha morphs. Both of these morphs have very high contrast in their markings. The dark parts are darker and the light markings tend to be a much lighter brown.

There seems to be a trend for dark colored ball python single gene animals to create light colored or white snakes, like the BEL complex or the Leche Morph.

Pinstripe Ball Python Morph

Hello everyone! Today I'm talking about the

Pinstripe Morph

 

 

The Pinstripe Morph is a co-dom morph. This is a pattern morph that I really love. This morph is characterized by a brown over most of the body, lighter near the spinal cord and darker down the sides, and two thin dark lines running parallel down the back of the snake with extra small dark lines running down toward the belly.

 

This pattern stands on its own as a lovely morph, but it looks really good when combined with color morphs.

 

I have a fondness for the Lavender Albino Pin.

 

And the CG Pin.

Coral Glow Pied Morph

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to talk about a special morph. This is one that I really want to own and plan to breed for one day.

The Coral Glow Piebald Morph

 

 

The Coral Glow Piebald Morph, more commonly known as the CG Pied, is a two-gene morph that is a combination of a co-dominant and recessive morph. The co-dom morph is Coral Glow, or Banana, and the recessive morph is the Piebald. I love both of these morphs individually but the combination I beautiful and I really love the way they look.

 

This morph is still fairly new in the ball python world and very few exist so far. I expect this to change as the CG Pied is a stunning animal that would be a feather in the cap of any collector who has one.

Coral Glow Ball Python

Hello dears! Im back again to inflict my basic ball python morph knowledge upon you yet again. So today I'm going to talk about the Coral Glow ball python  morph.

 

Coral Glow Morph

 

 The Coral Glow Morph is a co-dominant morph with a Super form that has finally been discovered. Coral Glows haven't been around for very long and they have this weird breeding thing that has an interesting effect on the sex of their offspring. Now, don't take my word as God's law or anything, but it would appear that if a male Coral Glow who was sired by another male Coral Glow produces offspring, any Coral Glow babies will likely be male that breed out other males. If a male is produced from a female, most of its children will be female. Like I said, weird right? There was some debate about it being a sex linked gene but I think that was debunked and I can't say why it happens its just an interesting quirk to this morph.

 

Baby Coral Glows look a bit different from adult Coral Glows

 

The Coral Glow morph is a lovely morph that is a very bright color. Young Coral Glows are very neon on the part of a normal that is a brown and the part of the snake that is black on a normal is a purple or lavender which makes the bright orange stand out even more. As they grow, this morph will gain speckles of black and the colors will fade out just a bit so that it isn't quite as bright.

 

These are brothers from the same clutch, you see the speckling coming in?

 

Super Coral Glow

 

You remember how I said the Super form is new? I do have one picture for you of the Super though.

 



The Spied Ball Python

Hello lovely people! Today Im going to talk about a morph that is vvery cool. It is still a two gene morph but it is super awesome.

The Spider Piebald Morph

 

 

The Spider Piebald ball python (usually referred to as a Spied) is a snake that has both the piebald and spider gene visibly expressed at one time. You may recall in a previous post that I made about Pieds I said that they are a recessive morph, so both parents must have the gene for the babies to have a chance at visibly expressing this morph. The Spider gene is a co-dominant or dominant gene and only one parent needs to have this gene and there is no way that a snake that doesn't look like a spider can be a spider, but a snake that carries the pied morph may be Het. pied because the snake must get the gene from both parents for it to be expressed.

 

Anyways, you get a Spied from breeding a spider het. pied to a pied or a het. pied. However, your best bet for a spied is for the parent without the spider gene to be a visible pied. This increases the odds that you can breed this snake exponentially.

 

Until next time, you guys have a great week!

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!

So here is a list of the JaxPark public pools that I made for a school project. Anyone local can use this.
