A Mojave female, to a normal male. I have no idea what ball python breedings give. Does anyone know a link that provides this info? Thanks Andy Federico

It would be very unfortunate if someone wasted a mojave female (adult $30,000 ?) on a $50 normal male when they could have loaned it to a mojave male and produced 1:4 white snakes with purple heads (the homozygous mojave).
Mojave X normal = 50% chance mojave eggs (like any het X normal breeding) but the only time this cross makes much sense is with a mojave male where the breeding only uses up a small percentage of his annual breeding potential rather than 100% of it for the female. Actually, because females take longer to mature there aren't a lot of breeder sized female mojaves out there and I doubt many of those would be available even for $50,000 so that is another reason that male mojave's are often (almost always so far) bred to normal females.
