A chimera Children’s?
Dave Evans, of Clear Mountain Reptiles, weighs in with a spontaneous Paradox of
his own!
A couple of seasons ago I was fortunate enough to
produce a chimera Children’s Python from a pairing
of my double-het, T+ Marble animals. The animal
appears to be a normal/T+ Marble chimera - I am

to best describe the appearance. I will be pairing it
this coming season and hopefully after a successful
breeding I will be able to describe it more
confidently. It was quite an unexpected find as I was
pipping the eggs. At first, when I saw two clearly
different phenotypes in the egg, I thought I was
dealing with twins. It was only on later inspection
that I realised it was only one animal and I was then

collection over the years, with a couple still remain-
