Beautiful ball, I just had a few thoughts. I noticed one person calling him a hypo, which I think is more fitting than ghost. I guess the ghost thing got stuck for all the different strains of hypo balls. Has anyone bred a hypo line with an axanthinc line, hence producing a true ghost? I think your hypo combined with an axanthic gene will produce awesome ghosts. It might take a few years, but I think it would be worth it.

Very nice animal !

"Ghost's" ??
Hrmm What about a Hypo X Pewter pairing..
( maybe Pewter is more like the anerythristic in Boa "Ghosts" )

OR..what about a Axanthic X Pastel combo for that.
To see if it works like a "Ghost" Boa as in pastel being the co-dom gene versus the Boa's version being Hypo.

Whoops i keyboard babbled didnt i...

You mean if they are yellow, it's a butterscotch. The newest snake we just got is yellow instead of brown.

It's so clean, bright and high contrast. Another route you might wanna go with him, since he is a he right? You could breed him to multiple females. Perhaps the idea of breeding him to an Axanthic has crossed your mind? He would make some AWESOME True Ghosts. Just an idea... let it perculate....lol. Just curious, how much did ya get him for? Awesome animal though and good luck breeding him.
