...because I see no stripe!

Maybe it's because it's late?

This stripping gene works like this. In one litter you get all striped babies but they vary from say 20% striped to fully striped. The color is
very intense in the striped boas and that is why the albino are so incredible.

I'm sure you are right, but in that pic I see nothing more than a (nice) boa with three very slightly elongated saddles. Do you have pics of this ones littermates? Is he the most 'extreme' of the 'striped' animals? If so, and this is only my personal opinion, I would hesitate before assuming your line is genetic.

Obviously even though the genetic stripes genetics have been figured out for 15 years now a few people are still unaware of the potentila of this gene. Here is the Striped Boa for all you pesmestic people that dont have a clear understanding of simple receive variable appearnce morphs. The striped gene works like a pied ball. pieds can be 5% or 95% so can a striped boa.

Nice!
