The genetics

Sable

Recessive

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.

Pink Pastel Albino

Recessive

Pink Pastel Albino is a recessive, tyrosinase-positive (T+) form of albino, distinct from Lavender, producing a pink-to-red toned snake.

What makes a Sunset

  • Two copies of Sable — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
  • Two copies of Pink Pastel Albino — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.

This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job (coming soon).
