    Opinions Please

    I got this snake as an "add-on" when the person I was purchasing from accidentally overcharged me, he offered her. I thought why not. I was told she was a "gold stripe", but I'm thinking she's a just a really dark and pretty normal, but she does seem a bit different, although I know they can vary greatly. (BTW, I've never heard of a gold stripe and would assume that the stripe would be running down the entire back if it were).
    So anyways, I'm thinking of keeping her as a dinker but didn't know if anyone could help in telling me what would be the best morph to match her up with. Got a few years to go, but it will at least help me to know what males I should be looking at to pair with her in the future. Thanks so much for looking and I appreciate any comments.

    I have a couple of het pied females that look like that, male het pieds are fairly in expensive so why not take a chance and pair them up. Worse case you get to see if the female is genetic and you also get possible hets to play with. Lots of normal looking snakes turn out to be far from normal... don't be afraid to go with your gut

    Thanks...I was wondering about her belly since I was looking at het pieds "markers" but I can't for the life of me see the difference. Her belly is different from my other normal, but that could just be a "normal" variation.

    I'll try her with a pied or het and see if anything happens, no matter what, I think she's beautiful, thanks for looking everyone!
