Gene
VPI Axanthic is a recessive axanthic line of the ball python: the gene blocks yellow and red pigment, leaving black, gray and white. A snake needs two copies to show it. Axanthic lines are separate genes, so pairing two different lines usually gives normal-looking babies.
Ball pythons show VPI Axanthic only with two copies. One copy makes a het, which looks normal but can pass VPI Axanthic on.
Plan a pairing with VPI Axanthic
Example: het × het gives about 1 in 4 VPI Axanthic per egg (1/4).

Guides and articles for VPI Axanthic ball python owners.

Ball pythons commonly live 15 to 20 years in captivity, and some live longer. Merck gives that planning range, while the Royal Veterinary College says up to 25 years. Much older animals are documented, but an exceptional record should not become a promise attached to every hatchling. Create a free ball python profile so age […]
A ball python feeding and shed log is most useful when it records events without guessing their cause. Keep what was offered, when it was offered, what you observed afterward, and the date and character of each shed. Creatures supports animal records and care plans so future tasks and completed events can stay separate. This […]
