Red Stripe Ball Python: Genetics and Pairing Odds
Red Stripe is a co-dominant (incomplete dominant) gene. One copy gives the Red Stripe look, and two copies make the Super Red Stripe, a stronger version of it. Bred to a normal, a Red Stripe gives about half Red Stripe babies; a Super Red Stripe gives Red Stripe babies every time.
