Key Features 

Dramatic Coloration & Unique Pattern

The Leopard gene intensifies the snake’s pattern, creating bold, jagged markings with high contrast compared to standard ball pythons. The Yellowbelly gene enhances color vibrancy, producing rich gold tones and distinctive “flaming” along the sides. Meanwhile, the Clown gene (a recessive trait) refines the pattern, adding crisp definition and a coppery glow. Together, these genes create a mesmerizing, one-of-a-kind appearance.

Genetic Powerhouse for Breeding

This morph is a triple-gene combo, blending dominant (Leopard), incomplete dominant (Yellowbelly), and recessive (Clown) traits. Breeders prize this combination for its potential to produce rare, high-value designer morphs, making it a cornerstone for advanced breeding projects.

Docile Temperament & Easy Care

Like all ball pythons, the Leopard Yellowbelly Clown is calm, easy to handle, and beginner-friendly. They thrive in standard enclosures (30–40 gallons for adults) with moderate humidity (50–60%), secure hides, and a diet of appropriately sized rodents. With proper care, these snakes can live 20–30 years, offering a long-term, rewarding pet experience.
