I personally don't feel that either the pure black patternless boa or the purple patternless are the "Super" version of the Motley. The main reason why I feel this way is that even though they have been produced by breeding Motley x Motley I believe they have both also been produced from breeding Motley to Normal(please correct me if I am wrong). That being the case, I feel this theory is impossible. As we all know in a Co-Dominant gene such as the Hypo you need to have a gene on both sides of the breeding to produce "Supers" thus blowing the "Super" theory out the window. I feel what may be happeneng here is that there are more genetics "hiding" within the Motley gene than we all know, and that these are all just seperate new morphs. I also think that maybe the Motley gene works similar to the Spider gene in BP's where the only way to tell a Super from a Co-Dom is by breeding trials and not apperance. Meaning that a Super Motley and a Co-Dom Motley both look similar and just carry different genetics. This would explain why there are such a small amount of "Supers" that have been produces so far. These are just some theorys that I have been working on and thought they might be a good conversation starter. Again I am in know way an expert on Motley genetics and maybe Jeremy or others have some insite that will blow my opinions out of the water. The one thing I do know is that Motleys are the most exciting Boa morph out there right now bar none.
