Meet GI Jane

[Caylan]

To answer your question, the yellow is definitely different from any normal macklotts python, so breeding it would be the only way to tell if its a new genetic morph or not. I don't see how hybridising would cause a colour change like that, so I'd reckon its a mutation of some sort, just not sure if its a genetically inheritable one. Regardless, I personally would just be proud to own such an animal, which it seems you are more then humbled as it is. Huge congrats on that find, whether you decide to try breeding her or not... I do think Macklotts would have a better reputation if you decided to take the project on though. With your overly "tame" macks and her unusual colouration, you could probably start a whole new market for them! ME I'm all over the other python species, so I'm just glad I get to see pictures of this snake, so thank you for that!
