Here is my pair of pieds (male in shed on the right and female on the left) with one of the het pieds produced from my male. My male pied produced 26 het pieds this year.

price depends on the amount of whit on the snake, some range from the high hundreds to the ten thousands! though really worth the price if you ask me!

I'm not a huge BP fan, but the piebalds are just plain neat! What a weird aberrancy... looking like someone stripped their pattern off with an eraser. :)

Saphire_Moon - I do have a couple 100% het Pieds available. Email me or check the classifieds for more details.
Thanks for the kind words everyone!
Corey
PS I have a lot invested in my pied projects......26 het pieds definately helps recoup some of that money!
does anyone know if its even possible to produce those that are completely pied? like all white nothing else??

Munchy,
You can never have a pied with a pure white head. The most white you can get is the head and a little bit of the neck....and that's it.
Corey
Corey-
Why? Is it just that it hasn't happened yet and doesn't look like its going too? Or is there some specific reason they don't have white heads?

Marisa,
It's just the way the gene works. The way I understand it is that the pigment is removed from the skin and it starts from the brain and works it's way down the body. For some reason the head can never get the pigment taken out of it....only from the neck down.
Corey
That's really odd. Thanks for the answer.

yeah, if all of the skin was white, then it would be luecistic, and luecistic bps are like male calico cats, if it happens they are geneticaly unstable, and die soon after hatching

All of the lucistic ball pythons produced in captivity (to date atleast 8 specimens) are still alive and doing well. Their has also been about 10 come out of Africa of which 1 died soon after hatching.

Just an FYI..........male calico cats, though extremely rare, are only flawed by being sterile and unable to reproduce. Other than this they can live perfectly normal and long lives. :)
