When any true mojave is bred to any other true mojave, you have a 25% chance of producing blue eyed lucies. This means that if the odds are against you, you may not produce blue eyed lucies in every clutch.
An imported snake can look like a mojave, but it is NOT a mojave unless it has been proven out - and produces blue eyed lucies. If it produces anything else, then it's not a mojave - it's something else!
And, people who haven't seen too many mojaves, or aren't very good at seeing details, can mistake some normals for mojaves. So these "mojaves" that don't produce blue eyed lucies might not even be anything other than normals with a lot of blushing.
