Making Double hets
Making the double hets for Candy Pied

This is where genetics becomes both interesting and frustrating. If you had looked at the single recessive Punnett Square, it is a lot easier to grasp than a double recessive trait. I will try my best to break this all down so it is easier to grasp...
For this example, we will be using a visual Candy (mmRR) and this will be paired to a visual Piebald (MMrr). The first thing you will notice is that we are using 4 letters to represent the mutations rather than two. The reason behind this, down the line, there combinations than the previous. 
While a 16 egg clutch from a Ball Python is few and far between, but this is just a breakdown of how these genes will work.

The resulted breeding provides us with:
16 x double het Candy Pied (MmRr)

The resulted breeding provides us with
