I am trying to clear something up with a friend. Do you need 2 motley's to produce more or is it like the hypo gene?

it is not really like the hypo gene because the homozygous form is different than the heterozygous form. the heterozygous form of the motley is what you see for sale, the homozygous form of the motley morph is an all black boa that looks really freaking awesome. but yes, if you breed a motley to a normal you will get a few motleys.

Motley is co-dominant so you only need one motley parent to produce more in the next generation. However, if you breed two Motleys together you get a very nice surprise.
Motley X Normal =
50% Motleys
50% Normals
Motley X Motley =
25% Super Motleys (solid black)
50% Motleys
25% Normals
