What is a Piebald (Pied) Ball Python?

Dramatic patches of pure unpigmented white across the body, interrupted by sections of normal brown-and-gold pattern. The white-to-colored ratio varies widely between individuals — high-white examples are especially prized.

Genetics
Simple recessive — a snake must inherit two copies to show pied; visually-normal 'het pied' carriers look like normal ball pythons.
Typical price
$150–400 (visual; high-percentage-white animals cost more)
