    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....

is it possible to have a normal, tiger, and super tiger all in the same clutch?
reason i ask is because i bought the tiger and normal at the same time, was told they were from the same clutch, but there was also a super tiger in the cage as well?
is it possible that when they ordered them fom bidalgo, they got one each from a different clutch?
and if they are from the same clutch, can you breed them?
thanks.

The gene is co-dominant. When a Tiger Retic is bred to a normal, 50% of the babies will be Tiger(the rest normals). When Tigers are bred together, you will get 25%Super Tigers, 50% Tigers and 25% normals. http://www.constrictors.com/Collection/ReticulatedPythons/TigerReticulatedPython.html

They may have all one clutch or a few from others. Though if they did buy a whole clutch I would expect they are all siblings.

Yes you can breed them if they are from the same clutch. Breeding siblings have been recorded up to 10 generations before defects occur. Tough many do not go beyond 7 generations.
 
You are welcome. I have come to really love Retics. Do you have pics of your you can post? I would like to see the pair you have, I am sure you will have an awesome clutch if you plan to breed.
