We have one female that has produced babies with these spots on them for a few years now. We hope to have some have spots from head to tail one day.

That thing's sweet - I've been goofing off with a similar type project with Pueblans.

That's wicked, do the spots appear in other bands or just the white ones?

Thats cool. I had a big old female het anery that had a couple perfect dots like that and a good amount of her babies would have them too.I held back a male that had the most (just 2 or 3) and bred him back to her and sure enough almost the whole clutch had them but they didn't increase in numbers of dots.Just had 1-3 but it was cool and it was re-producible.I am sure if I would have kept line breeding the best with the best that after several generations maybe you could buil a motley per-say.
I had a true ( well looked true) motley for several years.It had a solid black belly and was perfect motley head to tail but he would never breed for me ( he did a couple times but always slugs) and he died at only 7 years of age one year in hibernation.
Bummer cause I would have loved to just get one good clutch from him.
Oh well,
