Mojave

The Mojave ball python is an established color and pattern morph of Python regius with softened browns, warm gray tones, reduced side markings, and pale flames that often rise from the belly toward the saddles. It is part of the blue-eyed leucistic complex, so pairings with Lesser, Butter, Mystic, Phantom, and related genes can produce very pale or mostly white snakes. Single-gene Mojaves usually keep enough normal ball python pattern to be identified visually, while combinations may be harder to separate without breeding history.

Care is the same as for other ball pythons: secure housing, steady heat gradients, moderate humidity, clean water, and prey sized to the snake's condition. In breeding projects, Mojave remains useful because it interacts predictably with many popular morphs, but labeling should be conservative when several complex genes are possible. Buyers benefit from clear parentage, hatchling photos, and honest notes about uncertainty in multi-gene animals.
