About
Oriole is a dominant mutation founded by Uintah Reptile in 2014.
History
The matriarch of the Oriole trait was bought from a pet store, probably sometime around 2009-2010, and then surrendered in 2012 as a rescue/rehabilitation. She was bred to an Enchi male and produced the first Orioles and Oriole Enchi. The trait has since been combined with albino as well.
It was submitted to WOBP in 2014 as ‘Banshee’, but not accepted because of conflict with the Phantom combo. However, the combo ‘Banshee Enchi’ was accepted erroneously. Resubmitted to WOBP as a correction to ‘Oriole’ - Branon Rochelle
Appearance
Head
The head of an Oriole Ball Python is topped with a golden/orange crown and blushing towards the neck.
Body
The Oriole mutation is a color enhancer. It intensifies oranges, increases banding, reduces pattern, and has orange color all the way to the ventral scutes. It interacts differently with Enchi than a Super Enchi.
Belly
Oriole lacks the train tracks of Orange Dream.
Tail
The tail of the Oriole Ball Python follows the same patterning as the rest of the body.
