The genetics
Sable
Sable is a recessive mutation that increases melanin production, producing a darker, richer brown snake than normal. It's often bred into lighter morphs like Albino specifically to deepen contrast. They typically have 2 clear scales under their chin, creating a heart shape.
Toffee Belly
Toffee Belly is a recessive mutation, believed to be related to the T+ albino line, that replaces the normal black-and-white checkered belly with a toffee-gold color. Minor dorsal lightening can accompany the belly change.
Arctic
Arctic is an incomplete-dominant gene that tends to brighten, clean up, and cool the overall appearance of a Western Hognose. Arctic animals often show a lighter base color, sharper contrast, cleaner pattern, brighter coloration, white outlines around pattern elements, and speckling/flecking compared to non-Arctic animals.
Anaconda
Anaconda, often shortened to Conda, is an incomplete-dominant pattern mutation. One copy reduces the normal blotched dorsal pattern, creating a cleaner, more open, simplified appearance — the pattern becomes reduced, broken, or simplified.
What makes a Mai Tai Arctic Anaconda
- Two copies of Sable — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- Two copies of Toffee Belly — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- One copy of Anaconda — the single-gene form.
- One copy of Arctic — the single-gene Arctic form (incomplete dominant).
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job.
