Just a few thoughts on this cross...

Just wanted to throw in a little info.

Most seem to think this cross should be easily doable since both a Wall(Woma X Ball) and Coma (Carpet X Woma) have been produced. But what I'd like to point out is that the common factor in this equation is the Woma(Aspidites) which is a very primordial python, and therefore should be more likely to be compatible and have higher success rates of hatching since it is more of a reversion to an earlier state, and compatibility/lethal characteristics should lead to higher viability, rather than taking two lines(Ball and Carpet) and trying to find compatibility between them.

Not writing this to rain on your parade, I am one of those that thinks with enough trial and error (read many multiple types of pairings within each species) that success will be reached, just not as easily as either the Wall or Coma.
