In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

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....

Fireball Ball Pythons are a co-dominant trait.
When bred together, you get, I'm pretty sure, the black eyed luecistic.
Do you understand the minimum of genetics?
Well, like I said, fireball is a co-dominant trait.
If you breed 1 fireball, to 1 normal, you get roughly 50% Fireball hatchlings, and 50% normal hatchlings.
If you breed a fireball to a fireball, you will get I think 25% luecistics, and 75% fireball hatchlings.
And if you breed the dominant form [luecistic] to a normal you will get all fireballs.
If you can understand recessive genetics, this is more explainable.
You can think of the fireballs as a "het". The thing is here though, they are a visual het. When breeding 2 "hets" together, you can get the desired outcome, which is the luecisitic, the homogenous.
And of course, breeding the homogeneous to a normal will give you all "hets".
Sorry if that is a tad confusing. LOL. Keep the questions coming, hope that helped you out a tad.

"If you breed a fireball to a fireball, you will get I think 25% luecistics, and 75% fireball hatchlings."
Good explanation but one small slip up in the above statement.
In theory fireball X fireball should give you 25% chance leucistic, 50% chance fireball, and 25% chance normal. Don’t forget that 25% chance that the babies will get the normal gene from both parents.

Heh, normal. What is normal? Didn't you mean it could pass the banded/reduced/high gold/clear belly/ striped belly trait?

I have never seen a normal listed as a normal. "Pink sided, lavendur, super reduced, peach, high yellow/gold, striped, black backed, chocolate..." I'm sure any of you can add some to that.
It is crazy.
Go to Camlon Reptile's site. They have a reduced animal. Like, seriously reduced.
All the "reduced" sellers should go there. They'd be silenced.
