Default Desert Ball (not desert ghost!)

I believe Peter Khal has bred in the last couple of years, some Desert balls (co-dom), and then crossed them out to enchis to make tigers.

So, usual questions. Who, what, where, why, how much, and where can I get one? lol
Any pics or info would be great

on my phone now, so bit harder to check the website easily. But pretty sure Pro Exotics in the US have the main group of them. Seen on their site, they selling plenty of crosses, into the pastel, enchi and spider. Think they got a few triple co doms aswell with the desert involved. Certainly is a nice looking snake. And would be a good project to get involved with a think. They dont come cheap though, especially the desert mixes

It would appear that most people have accepted them as "banded" and someone else has used tiger for their morph.

Desert Balls are still fairly pricey in the US, I'm not aware of any in the UK.

Here's a Female Desert compared with a Normal owned by my good friend Justin Kobylka;
