“In 2007 my male jaguar coastal carpet python believed to be heterozygous axanthic was bred to a probable axanthic female. No axanthic jags were produced, but an axanthic was. Grief! But I was now sure the axanthic look was genetic, which hadn’t been proven yet. On July 20, 2008, the axanthic jag took its first breath of air. I was ecstatic! It’s 9 months old in the photo. This mutation is a genetic key crucial to produce snow jaguars and many other killer combos. I, for one, cannot wait.”
