The parents of this male were a Queenspin (Pastel Lesser Spider Pinstripe) x Pastel Calico. I've hatched out a good number of calico morphs including a Calico Lesserbee, Calico Queenbee, Calico Killer Queenbee, etc. etc. So that eliminated some of the options right there.

But basically the only thing I was struggling with was the calico portion of the snake, since I've hatched a Pastel Lesser Spider Pin I know what a baby looks like in the egg, so this was at least a Super Pastel version of that. After seeing what Calico did to the other snakes, it shed a couple times, and the calico shows itself much more in the snake.

Here is a picture of a Kingspin & Dad.

it is very cool Ben, but out of curiosity what gene in the combo do you think kills the calico "effect" if you will? E

I wouldn't say it kills it, but in my opinion, probably the Lesser. Every Lesser Calico combo I've produced kind of put that little bit of side pattern in. I think the Spider keeps the white up a little bit, but as you can see in the Super Pastel Calico Lesser, it didn't have the high white sides, and in most of the Lesser Calico animals, they have the white, but just pattern in it.

I don't think there is any Yellowbelly in there, I've gone through the parents and offspring pretty well to see, the pattern always flows into a pure white belly with no blotching at all. But I can see how it does resemble it!
