It is being reproduced due to everyone breeding similar looking animals together (selective pressure) to try and obtain a specific look (purpose or outcome due to manmade selective pressure); i.e. line breeding for reduction in brown pattern. They should simply be called Reduced Pattern East African Sandboas. Simply tell any potential buyer that you have been selectively breeding them for X amount of time...or just start saying they are 66% hets for reduced pattern and Dodoma. Simple is the key word....Green Tree Python = a green colored python found in trees. K.I.S.S.

You have 2.1 Boston terriers. If you breed them and a produce a pup with a higher percentage of white than black coloration, what would you call it?
