could this possibly be a genetic trait?

I got him and five others from B.H.B. I am woundering if this could be passed on to the offspring? Ive seen animals with this trait called busy patterened. I dont know if its genetic though. What do you guys think? And what do you htink of him? Thanks

peace,
nathan

I think. No it is not genetic.

As Jeff says above... EVERYTHING is genetic that is not environmental and busy patterned is not environmental. Find a couple busy patterned snakes and they'll probably have busy patterned babies. I don't think that is a labyrinth ball, either.
