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