I'm leaning toward het (for pin) normals but what do I know.

Very nice snake.

Very nice snake.

The pinstripe mutation in ball pythons is a dominant gene. You won't get any hets from breeding him to a normal. You'll either get visuals (pinstripes) or normals. The usual chances are 50% for each egg, one way or the other.

Very cool.

I wasn't sure if it was a recessive or not.
