Wonderful post,it's all very logical,but again We're not interested in assuming,or even suggesting these are "supers" though.Addressing the part about "if it matters that this was produced using an F3 animal,or,not"...I'd have to say,based on the initial results,YES,I believe it does.The "why" is still not perfectly clear,maybe we'll know more as we breed other F3's.It will be interesting to see how & what the patternless animals produce themselves...It's always good to make comparative examples,but,it doesn't always lead to the correct conclusions,if it did,it would seem there should be only one way to produce leucistic ball pythons,when in fact,there are several?...also,about your Jungle analogy...do you know of any F5 Jungles? has this actually been done? if so what were the results? has a litter of 100% supers been produced,if so,how did the combination affect the appearence ratio in an all homozygous litter?(I believe most of these questions remain unanswered,I may be wrong? I'd be very curious to know though! )
