I wish I knew of any publications regarding the origin of rusty / leucistic Black Ratsnakes, but like I said before I was only telling what I've been told by some other well known ratsnake breeders. I'm not really into name dropping, but it wasn't Joe Blow's Trunkslammer Reptile Barn (good one, haha).

Codominant genes propably are quite common in snakes, it's just that the mutant genes that we as reptile breeders focus on almost always turn out to be recessive. The codominant modus of inheritance of the rusty coloration is well know, another well known example of a codominant gene is the (heterozygous) 'Tiger' and the (homozygous) 'Super Tiger' Reticulate Python.

You know what? Let's just breed a leucistic Texas Ratsnake to a leucistic Black Ratsnake, and see what happens. By the way, should you ever come to Europe, can you take some of these excellent Brindle Black Ratsnakes with you?

Greetings,

Herman Bronsgeest.
