I'm sure you didn't know. I found out a while back as well trying to do so and simply not knowing about the block.

I will also breed him to a Striped Lava just to see if he is het for Striped or Motley, but the breedings to a Lava Motley or Ice Motley will be most interesting.
That clutch was produced from this male. Hope that helps. I plan on running mine to striped lava provided she's large enough.

If you GOOGLE IMAGE search Striped Leopard Rat Snake, you'll see many examples. I'm told that striped variants are found that exhibit contiguous stripes, but those are not the result of an additional striped gene mutation - like our Tessera corn snake mutants.

This picture of a wild-caught mutant was provided today by Daniel Bohle of Germany.

Digging this up again, I was reminded of this thread when asked for updated pics of the baby in question in my first post.

But WOW, this snake in the picture I quoted is very interesting. Check out these Blood/Diffused (whatever) Tessera I produced this year:



And my holdback Pewter Tessera:






Both snakes pictured are siblings. I assumed it was the Bloodred/Diffused (again - whatever :P) doing the abberant breaking up of the pattern.

Today it is common knowledge that this is the Motley Tessera Phenotype.

Here are some photos of my favorite Motley Tessera, a Blue Motley Tessera het Striped.

My Blue Motley Tessera is not "just" a jungle corn, it is "Super, Super, Duper, Blue Motley Jungle Corn". or a Blue Motley Striped California King Snake, or some other hybrid combination.

What is the definition of a hybrid marker? What is the definition of "No Hybrid Markers"?
