There was a thread below on banded ball pythons. Normals are highly variable so you can have normals that are banded that aren't genetically reproducable. Below are pictures of what I consider Banded animals (they just so happen to be genetic too!).

These are all old pics taken in September and October. I still have all these guys here......I'll take new pics sometime.

Second Generation (F2) Banded male. Produced from Breeding my original Banded to back to one of his daughters. Out of 5 eggs I produced 1.2 Banded and 1.1 Normals.

F2 Banded Female

F2 Daughter with the orginal Banded Father. The Banded father is also hypermelanistic but I don't believe that that trait is genetic.

Damn... I do love those bandeds :) You wouldn't want to send one to live with me, would you Corey? ;)

I'm keeping all of the bandeds that I produced this year. I have 5 females from my Banded male that are breeder size this year but I'm only going to breed the him to 2 of his daughters. 1 of the 2 females that I'm going to be using is the mother of the bandeds that are pictured above. So, I might have a couple available next year if the females that are bred decide to ovulate.

Thanks for the kind words.
