An Ivory Ball Python is a super form, like Super Pastels, Black Eyed Leucisitcs, Pearls, Red Axanthics, etc... To get a super form you breed a female and a male with the same co-dominant morph. To produce an Ivory, you will need to breed two Yellow Bellies together. When buying Yellow Bellies be careful. Some people will try to rip you off. If Im wrong, someone please correct me.
Good Luck,
James

So far it is just 2 yellow belly balls. Yellow bellies are a fairly new morph discovered by Snakekeeper(the Sutherlands) in 2003 since then Several other people have proved that Yellow bellies, produce themselves and Ivory's when bred to each other. That is the way I understand it to be. Thanks David

Here is a photo of a Yellow belly, This one however has not been proven, but should prove out to be the real deal.

Ivory Balls are the super form of yellow bellies.If you breed 2 yellow bellies together you should statistically get 25% normals,50% yellow bellies and 25% ivory. Best wishes, Mark Petros BallPython777.com
