We've talked about the Ultramel A & B mutations before, but have you ever wondered how that works on a DNA level?

Get into the nitty-gritty with us in another of Dr. Seidel's publications on ball python genetics on this week's episode of Reptile Genetics Weekly!

Pssst... If you still need to send in sheds for future morph testing research, this is your sign. 😉✨

Our goal is to move into morph testing (and more!) for new species in 2025! The more known-genetics sheds we have for each species, the easier it is for us to create new tests! We can't do it without your support! 🐍🧬❤

The mom is still involved, but her genetic information isn't. How does that work???
♂🧬♂

Justin of is back with an exceptionally rare case of Androgenesis, and it may technically be a world first morph combo? (Justin doesn't think it counts, but what do you think? 🤓)

All of this and more on this episode of Reptile Genetics Weekly!

POLL:
When you order a Multi-Gene Morph Panel for your Ball Pythons, is it worth an extra $5, $10, or $20 to HALVE the time it takes us to get a multi-gene panel test result to you?

Or do you prefer that we keep the price as LOW as possible while keeping our current 3 to 5 week turnaround time for panel test?
🧬🐍🧬

Last week's poll gave us LOTS of great info to work from, and we want to continue to serve you guys the best we can as we move toward 2025!

Get the full scoop and a shout-out to in this week's episode of Reptile Genetics Weekly!

One female Ball Python laid two clutches of only low-white Piebald hatchlings... Is this is a new strain of Piebalds (tentatively named the "Crumble" Pied!), or is there something else going on?

Get our geneticist's & the breeder's perspective on it with Dr. Ben Morrill and Roger Gray of ! 🐍🥚🧬

Headed to the St. Louis NARBC show this weekend? We'll see you there! 🐍🧬🥳

Shawn will be there repping RGI all weekend, and we'll have plenty of brand new 2024 shirts with updated mutations! (We wanted to get them earlier this year, but we were focused on getting new tests first!)

Don't forget that you can bring your sheds for research & testing, too! Make sure research samples are labeled with all known genetics, and preferably your name/business so we can get in touch if we have questions. 😀

See y'all there!
