Hello everyone
I would love to have your thoughts on snakes A genetics. Male №1 is Confusion Enchi DH Tri-stripe Albino. Male №2 is Sandblast Killer Pied. Both paired to a Black Pastel Albino female.
A-
B- Confusion Black Pastel Enchi Albino poss. het Tri-Stripe
C- Confusion Enchi Albino poss. het Tri-Stripe
D- Confusion Enchi het Albino poss. het Tri-Stripe
E- Confusion Enchi het Albino poss. het Tri-Stripe
I don’t see either Confusion, Enchi or Black Pastel in snake A. Possible dual sired clutch.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a dual sire clutch and A is a sandblast low expression pastel. You could get it tested for pied and that would be the answer on dad.
E also looks more like A to me than an Enchi Confusion. I would consider testing that one for pied as well if you really want answers.
I don’t work with confusion though so I could be wrong.
Thank you for your reply @armiyana . I agree with you in the dual sired clutch. Snake A must be from Sandblast Killer Pied male.
The only thing that makes me wonder snake E might be Confusion is the little “mustache” it has and a bit of belly marks (see attached photo). But it does look Pastel as well so I must be wrong. It’s probably from Sandblast Killer Pied male too.
I am living in Thailand and I don’t think there is shed testing in the area.
Iirc, @t_h_wyman works with acid. I don’t think it’s been found to be the same as confusion gene (yet?), but it seems to act similarly. Maybe he can have a more definitive answer on it.
Thailand has very recently passed a law allowing export of snakes and snake skins after a lengthy prohibition. I don’t know the specific details of how one goes about doing this, nor the cost, but if you can get the export permits you can send the sheds to RGI for testing. You can find RGI through MorphMarket.
Yes that’s right, Thailand can export snakes now. I never thought about sending sheds to overseas for testing and I am pretty sure it can be done without permits, I’ll look into it.

Oh, what a lovely spot! My son had a friend who lived there. He sent wonderful pics when he visited. Thanks for the invitation! Who knows, maybe one day!
I have not made any Albino Enchi personally, but from what I have seen online and at shows compared to the numerous Albino Acid combos I have made, the Acid ones are generally much brighter. Albino Enchi also have a tendency to blush out and develop a lot of yellow/orange bleed through. My original Albino Acid is the highest contrast stark white and gold Albino I have
