Piebald

The piebald (pied) ball python morph - Piebald is a recessive trait that is partially un-pigmented with variable color and pattern mutations.  Piebalds express an unusual cloud-like pattern unseen in any other base-morph. The amount of white is not indicative of its parents’ color.  For instance, a 90% white piebald bred with a 90% piebald, may not produce 90% white offspring.  The amount of white is typically a random occurrence.  Pieds are a color and pattern mutation with an aberrant body pattern while the head is typically normal looking. Although some have confused ringers with pieds, there are some distinct differences.  Pied was one of the first genetic tests being offered by ProHerper.
