    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Are high white BP's genetic or random?

Here's some background info.
I have a 1.1 pair of really, really high white BP's that I would like to breed. They are both black and yellow with solid white surrounding the lateral blotches and a lot of white coming up on the sides. The female also has a solid white tipped tail. I bought these for a few bucks over what normals go for because of the striking contrast. They kept all the white as they grew. They are still black but the bright yellow has turned to a gold color. They are still nice really looking though IMO.

Now for the question.
Is the white genetic? If by breeding these, will the offspring have as much white as the parents? Are these 2 just really pretty but will have offspring with no white?

I would like to be able to breed black and yellow animals with the white outlining if possible. Not to charge outrageous amounts of money for normals but just to be able to offer really striking CB normals.

Sorta my way of trying to break into the market. If you want really striking , healthy $100 CB normal BP's than "buy from this guy".

Any thoughts?
