    Fires

    Looking at getting a male fire soon. I have been looking around and have seen a few animals that stand out than the othes. Example would be most fires I see look VERY similar to normals but the ones I am looking at are def fires. But what I need some help with was what makes a fire a fire morph. What makes Fires a perfect example of the morph vs not so much. I now it comes down to my preference but I would also like to know what the more is supposed to look like.

    Thanks!

    Now, I don't know much about morphs in general, but I'll try to help. I know fires look quite similar to normals at times, but they are generally lighter and good examples will be cleaner and have a brighter overall color. Correct me anyone if I'm wrong, but I think they are a type of subtle hypomelanistic.

    Please forgive any mistakes, as I'm learning about the morphs as I go.

    I think it really comes down to what you like to look at in a snake

    For me, I like busy patterned light colored fires. I have a bunch of em but this is my current fave

    Maybe a dirty fire looks like a normal, but a good fire looks nothing like a normal to me.

    Head spot, clear belly, ghost like coloring.

    Comparison shot with a fairly dark yellow belly

    And such a cute lil spot on their head

    Their sides are definitely different than most any normal I've seen.

    The belly is very un-normal like
