Im new to this morph, but according to Keith Mcpeak its seems to be dominate. He stated he breeds normal to marble and gets marbles. I obviously have no proof or back up on that, but thats what i was told.

It's actually considered co dominant, and then there is an almost identical recissive form called granite.

Great looking snake though I think I was eying that one in Daytona.

Great looking marble, Jon! I love how marble comes up the sides and the light back pattern. Borneo's are GREAT snakes and I think you are going to love 'em.
