Stand-Out Features
- Proven Genetic Combination: The butter and pinstripe genes are co-dominant, making this male a reliable producer for a variety of potential offspring, including super butter and spinner morphs.
- High-Contrast Markings: Exhibits the classic, clean dorsal stripe of the pinstripe gene, sharply defined against the butter's soft, caramel-to-yellow base color.
- Excellent Feeding Response: Like most ball pythons with these genetics, this male has a strong, consistent feeding drive on frozen-thawed rodents.
- Established and Hardy: This is not a delicate hatchling; it's a well-established animal with a solid feeding record, ready for its next home.

Your Questions Answered
What can I breed this male to?
He is an excellent candidate for breeding to normal females to prove out his heterozygous genes, or to other co-dominant females like pastels, spiders, or mojaves to create complex combos like spinner blasts or lesser bees.
Is his temperament suitable for handling?
Yes. Ball pythons with these genetics are typically docile. This male is no exception—he's calm when handled and has never shown defensive behavior. Regular, gentle handling is recommended to maintain this temperament.
Why do you sell more of these on weekends?
Our staff notes a clear trend: many customers purchase established, breeding-ready animals like this one after weekend "range days"—visiting local reptile expos or shows, then coming to us for a specific, quality animal they saw online.
