The Fire
Ball Python is a brightly colored, pale
yellow snake. They have a kind of ghostly appearance, but the yellow
is more intense. The Fire is a beautiful new Ball Python
trait in its own right, the fact that it is the key to the patternless
Leucistic is just a nice bonus. The Fire Ball is the
visible heterozygous condition of the Leucistic. When bred to normals the
result will be Fires and nomals. When Fires are bred together you will
get Fires and Leucistics. There is a real advantage with this Leucistic
project because there are no "possible hets". It is a co-dominant
trait, the "super fire" is a bright white ball python with no pattern and
black eyes, the "Holy Grail" of the Ball Python world, the
patternless,
Black Eyed
Leucistic.
The black eyed Leucistic is the homozygous
condition of the Fire. The long
term potential of this project is immense. This is one of the Big
traits, like Albino and Pied. Eventually everyone will "have" to have
a White Ball Python in their collection. |
