How do you get 66% het? ›

If you breed one 100% het to a non het animal, each of their offspring will have a 50/50 chance of also getting the one parent's het. Pair two with the same 100% het het recessive and you will get some visual morphs but all the ones not showing the recessive gene, will have a 66% chance of carrying it.

A 66% or 50% het means that there is a 66% or 50% chance that the animal in question is het for the gene. If you crossed a 100% het pied to a normal, the offspring would be 50% hets.

Pastel Ball Python:

This morph is highly sought-after due to its striking visual appeal and the outcome when the pastel gene interacts with other morphs.

The most expensive Ball Python morph sold was a Lavender Albino Piebald which fetched $40,000. The Black Pastel Bamboo Ball Python morph can sell for up to $8,000. The Blue Eyed Leucistic Ball Python morph is priced at around $6,000.

Those numbers are basically the % chance that the snake is a heterozygous (carrying one copy of the trait). So a 100% het pied is guaranteed to be het for piebald, a 66% het has a 66% chance of being het for piebald, etc and so forth.

equally good and bad, likely and unlikely, favorable and unfavorable, etc.: a fifty-fifty chance of winning.

The Het Red Axanthic Ball Python is a colour and pattern altering mutation whose name causes much confusion within the hobby. The term “het” is normally used in the hobby as shorthand for heterozygous while usually referring to a non-visual, single gene form of a recessive trait.

The genetic variations of morphs span a wide range and include a variety of colors and patterns. Ball Python morphs can be pure white and include colors like orange, pink, yellow and purple and colors and hues of nearly everything in between.

Breeding. Captive ball pythons are often bred for specific patterns that do not occur in the wild, called "morphs." Breeders are continuously creating new designer morphs, and over 7,500 different morphs currently exist.

Is there a black ball python morph? ›

The Black Pastel Ball Python is a colour and pattern altering mutation that is similar to the Cinnamon Ball Python. There is some debate whether or not these morphs are separate lineages, as they both produce extremely similar supers, even when paired to one another.

They have all of the standard patterns of a Ball Python, but Axanthics are color mutations and are fairly rare.

Mystic ball pythons are the result of an incomplete dominant gene mutation within the species. The gene alters both color and pattern and is used in a wide variety of combinations to create other beautiful and unique morphs.

Ghost - Also known as Hypo or Hypomelanistic. The “Ghost” is a recessive mutation that reduces the black pigmentation. Although there are many different lines of ghosts, they generally follow the same general description. Ghosts are varying shades of yellow, brown, grey and green.

Acquisition. The Cthulhu can be obtained by two different ways depending on the choices made during The Beast In Me quest chain. If V finishes the race or if Sampson is killed after V chases him: After a few days, Muamar Reyes will send V a message saying he is selling the car.

Het or Heterozygous: This means that the hatchling is carrying the gene for a specific trait but only one gene out of a pair is of the special trait.
