INTRODUCTION:
The Bamboo Ball Python is a colour and pattern altering mutation that can be easily told apart from a Normal Ball Python by the extreme washed away colours and heavy blushing that covers the dorsal stripel.
VISUAL DESCRIPTION
Head: The head of a Bamboo Ball Python is usually topped with a light tanned crown with a slight stamp. Around the crown, bright blushing can be displayed, most commonly around the rear of the head.

Body: The body of the Bamboo Ball Python is usually dominated by its serrated dorsal stripe, with bubble-like “alien heads” between. Dorsal stripes are usually a brighter shade than that of the alien heads. The bodies colour can range from dark browns to light syrup-like golds, usually with large contrast.

Hidden Gene Woma
“HGW”
Base Morph Incomplete Dominance (Co-dom)
INTRODUCTION:
The Hidden Gene Woma Ball Python is a colour and pattern altering mutation that is suspected, yet unproven, to be part of the Spider Complex. Despite its name, the Hidden Gene Woma doesn’t actually contain any “hidden genes” and is a completely separate mutation to the Woma Ball Python. Also with it being that they are extremely visually similar, this had led to more confusion around the genes.
VISUAL DESCRIPTION
Head: The head of a Hidden Gene Woma Ball Python is usually almost completely covered in chocolate- brown scales, with very little blushing on the crown .
Image from Emily’s Exotics
Body: The body of the Hidden Gene Woma Ball Python is covered in faded “alien heads” that often resemble keyholes, in that the “eyes” within the “alien heads” tends to be singular. Body colouration can range from soft golden-brown to sharp black.
Belly:

Tail: The tail of the Hidden Gene Woma Ball Python follows the abstract pattern and colouration.

Wobble - Wobble - The Hidden Gene Woma Ball Python (and other morphs) has a genetic disorder referred to in the hobby as a “wobble”. “Wobbles” can range from almost unnoticeable to worryingly severe on an individual basis and is one of the largest debated and controversial topics in the reptile world, with many experienced breeders and keepers on both sides of the debate. While all Hidden Gene Woma Ball Pythons “wobble” to a degree, extreme cases are rare and most will live a normal life. “Wobbles” are often more noticeable during feeding and agitation and can be affected by stress and husbandry.
