I understand this cross would be capable of creating animals that have visual appearances that seemingly exhibit more or less of the founding pure adult influences. But to say they will be variable in blood is wrong by most standards. These percentage numbers used are reflecting the mixed blood heritage involved in making them, not which parent they visually appear to look most like. No matter how ya cut it, your crosses are 75% Ball ancestry and 25% Angolan ancestry. Just like pure snakes, hybrids will vary within one clutch...and generally moreso with hybrids than pure animals. They are going to be a highly variable bunch exhibiting many more characteristics than usual. But that's just my understanding of it.

Your snakes are neat hybrids, proving once again that boid crosses can be fertile. That's fantastic IMO.
Congrats!
