It bites that it does take so long to be sure about things with ball pythons. I did a 3 gene Syrian hamster combo in about a year (calico, nothing new to figure out). It probably would have taken at least a decade to do something similar with ball pythons.
I think you are right to be stoked about the apparent yellow belly and flame hypo combo but I'm not sure it really proves flame hypo to be co-dominant vs. perhaps still being completely dominant. And of course as Paul points out it could even still be recessive. Still, if I had any money I would bet on co-dominant.
I can't wait to see what pewters and ebonies produce with normals to get a feel for if the unexpected synergy in each combo is an indication of any sort of relation between the combined genes in each case.
