    Black back ??

    Good day to you all
    Guys, can you tell me if this BP is the black back morph ? I'm kinda confused, the seller said it's a black back, but mine has more black area on its back compared to this one
    What does it take for a BP to be called "Black Back" ?

    I don't think it has enough on it's back to be called a Black Back.

    Black Backs tend to have alot more black on their back than that one. I'd say no. Do you have another Black Back to compare it with?

    Black back is a descriptor of a normal pattern. It CAN be genetic, but there is no "Black Back Morph".

    This is my black back for comparison:



    This girl also has a lot of lack of pattern on her back, but I don't call her a black back:
