She is beautiful.
When you received her was she that light? You call her a Banana Ball. Does she have the same gene as the coral glow?

Thanks

Very nice, she seems to be getting lighter and lighter every time I see new pictures. It apprears to me that she's looking more and more like the whitesmoke as time goes by.

That's one hot momma!

Kudos on a beautiful specimen/morph and congrats on it being co-dom or dominant. If it's co-dom and there IS a 'Super Banana/WhiteSmoke/Coral Glow' it is going to be, as the kids say, 'off the freakin hook.'

Any plans in the works to test breed your Bananas to NERD's WhiteSmoke/Coral Glow line? Comparing hatchling and adult pics from both lines they look nearly identical.

And I could be wrong, but I think NERD's WhiteSmoke/Coral Glow line is co-dom/dominant as well, with the Coral Glows resulting from the WhiteSmoke male's initial breeding.

Thanks for the photos!

PS: Niicce WC male piebald! I'm always amazed that snakes as brightly coloured as that can manage to live a day, let alone months or years, in the wild. Simply amazing.............as they say in the South, 'Stands out like a turd in a punchbowl!'

Will brought one of the Banana's to the Tinley Park show this past October and took it to Kevin's table and as Will approached with the Banana, Kevin saw him coming and said that he didn't own anything like that. Kevin then had the opportunity to hold the Banana for several minutes examining it from head to toe and again stated that he in fact did not own an animal like Will's but would like to one day. The Banana does not have black spots but purple spots which appear black in the pictures taken of it. It also has deep purple eyes which is unique in the world of ball python morphs. It also acts in a co-dominant nature and one of these days, it will be bred back to a male banana to see if there is a super version and Will is keeping his fingers crossed that ii is not another one of those white snakes.
Will got lucky, a number of big breeders passed on this animal and Will bought it sight unseen and WON. His waiting list goes on for many years but feel free to make him an offer he can't refuse and you to might get lucky, but you will have to get in line behind me.

The Banana is the hottest ball out there just in its natural form, what will come from this when bred into all the other amazing morphs that all ready exist, only time will tell.

BEAUTIFUL ANIMAL Will, produce a Bunch of them.

Doug is 100% right Will scored BIG time! and that waiting list goes on for days. Wills door looks like the checkout lines at Toys R Us on X-Mas eve....

Good Luck this year and may the "Odd Gods" be in your favor!
