Determine the intergration of my snakes

[Insid3r]

Hello dear sSNAKESs forum users.

I bought three snakes and I were told that they were a mix of:

50 % Coastel (Morelia spilota mcdowelli)
38 % Diamond (Morelia spilota spilota)
12 % Jungle (Morelia spilota cheynei)

And I wonder if I can trust that. Is there any way to really determine what kind of mix they are?

There really is no sure way of knowing what the mix is. Usually people mix carpets to add some colour to their breeding projects, in particular with the Jaguar morph.

They are really good-looking snakes, no matter their lineage!

Thanks :)

And they're one year and two months old. Will their colours be much powerful later on?

I have a side question, sorry, don't mean to hijack your thread, this is related though so I figured I'd ask here.
How do you get a snake of that mix? Obviously, one of the parents was coastal, then the other parent would be what? What would that snake's lineage be? How does that specific mix work out, with 38% and 12%? I'm trying to figure it out but I'm terrible at math!

I can always ask the breeder what the parents were

Looks like the percentages were technically just rounded down.

What a person did was cross a jungle with a diamond. Then took that 50/50 animal and split it with another diamond, thus creating 75/25 animal.

Finally one of these babies was then bred to a coastal, making a 50/12.5/37.5 animal. Rounding these numbers gives you the 50/38/12 animals we see in the pictures.

Yeah, I think that the numbers that were printed on the box were 12.5 and 37.5.
