I am not an expert in any way but I thought I had read somewhere that it was a recessive gene.. and you would need to breed 2 of them together to get more. Reverse Okeetees are selectively bred amels, so if you want to breed more of them you need a male Reverse Okeetee. I think there are people who breed RO's with other morphs which create snakes that look like RO's, but they dont have the RO bloodline.

But if I am wrong someone with more knowledge will correct me xxx

Reverse okeetee is a fancy name for an amel with wide white saddle borders. Amel is a recessive morph which means both parents have to pass the gene down to their babies for it to be visible, which in turn means the anery parent has to be het amel.
