I don't think it's has been done yet.... I could be wrong but VPI Axanthic makes the best looking snow check out http://www.ralphdavisreptiles.com/collection/pythons/ball/vpi_snow_ball_python.asp
If your asking if the 2 lines are compatible they arent, and if they did mix the 2 lines of axanthics since its a double recess its a 1-16 shot of making a mixed axanthic. As for mixing lines of axanthics its not a very smart idea is why I think it hasnt been done, for the simple fact as a buyer your not going to know which line you are buying into which can cause a big hassle. Say you buy a female out of these mixed line axanthics and a 8 months later you purchase a male SK line for breeding now if you were lucky enough to get the 1-16 shot both line axanthics in one then you will have SK line axanthic 100% het Jolliff but if you only had the Jolliff line 100% het SK axanthic female you may get an SK line axanthic in the clutch, you see where Im going with this its a real pain. And for the most part I know I personally wouldnt buy the Jolliff line because they brown out quickly and while they are some nice SK line axanthics the best are the VPI lines. Hope this helps
