New addition to my colony. She is the grandchild of Lenny K, my Dinker boy from BPM, South Africa. Lenny K produced 4 offspring in my first year of breeding Ball pythons. I didn't understand how to Dinker and sold 2 to my friend Wian. One of the females turned out to be a boy, of unusual look like his dad. That male produced his first clutch last year, and some keepers for Wian. Him, being in the same boat, sold this girl, Bliss, as a pet.
Then the opportunity to buy her came up a few weeks ago, and I went for it as she is unusual looking herself, and her sibs definitely shows a new gene.
I'm keeping separate bloodlines now.
I will develop my line further as Gold dust. Wian's line will be continued as Yellow ash, and once this girl, Bliss, is ready I'll be putting her back to her dad Pastel Yellow ash pos. Fire/Vanilla.
The 2 females I kept out of the foundation male, Lenny K, are laying their first clutches within the month. Arrow (Gold dust Pastel Spider pos. Fire/Vanilla) was mated to GHI Leopard 100% het Puzzle. Andromeda (Gold dust Pastel Spider pos. Fire/Vanilla) was mated to Enchi Pastel Super Yellowbelly.
I'm excited to pursue polygenics, and maybe discover a recessive further down the line.
