May sound stupid but I was puzzled today when I thought of this Q
What is the morph name for normal ball python or isn't it just called a normal ball python |

Normal or wild-type - or 'dinker' when an apparently normal to normal breeding produces an unusual hatchling - although since many normals nowadays can be het for morphs and since some morphs have originated from breeding from unusual wild caught royals and even 'normal' normals can differ greatly in colouration and patterning, there is, imo, no such thing as a normal normal!
Normals always have a trick or two up their sleeve ... |

What can you breed with a normal to get cool morph
(sorry for the question just don't understand the genetics to ball pythons ) |

You can breed any dominant/co-dominant morph to get a cool morph. Recessive gened morphs need a gene from each snake for it to be visual. There's loads of info on the net |

im going to be putting my bumblebee to my normal, apparently that will give bees, pins (i think?) and normals. not a bad pairing for first time i think. |
1.1.0 corns (amel + carolina) 2.3.0 normal, fire, pastel and 2 bumblebee royals 1.0.0 jungle carpet python |

Sadly you won't get any bees breeding with a normal. You'll just get pastels and spiders |

That's not true I'm afraid James, Bumblebee x Normal will yield all 3 of the morphs, pastel, spider and bumblebee. With co-dom and dom genes it's like a big mixing pot as long as the genes are there it doesn't matter which parent they're in they'll still have a chance to pass to the offspring. |

No you don't have to breed co-dom with dom, you can breed whatever you like to anything :) |

Places like Crystal palace reptile, royalmorphsforsale.co.uk (which is the specific site for Emsworth reptiles own bred offspring) or any large reptile/exotics stores online. World of Ball pythons have a a list of reputable breeders in the UK (& USA, have to cipher through a little) or read through the reviews & recommendations people have left on the forum from specific breeders of shops they've used.

Yeah i found that out a couple hours before i posted. Just thought you would need another royal with one of the other genes. Really confused how it works with double gened snakes. |
