Buying a ball python

[DJ_Bizarre]

hey guys i really need your help, i found someone selling a ball python. He says it is female but isnt sure because the only way he knows is from the people at the pet store that sold it to him said so. I just wanted to know what morph you guys thought this was because it def isnt a normal. Please give me as much information as you can from these pictures.

I'm no expert but that doesn't look like a ball at all - I think it's a red tail boa

[LadyOhh]

That is a Boa

[Kaorte]

That is most definately not a ball python

As others have said, it is a Boa.

[cinderbird]

most certainly a boa.

That isn't any morph of ball python.

It's not even a python.

That is a Red Tail Boa.

Either that guy is trying to pull a fast one on you, or is a total moron who bought a snake from even bigger morons, and now that he knows what it is, he wants rid of it.

The ironic thing is that a red tail is worth quite a lot more than a normal ball, at least on this side of the Atlantic.

Its guna get a bit bigger than a ball python so make sure you can house it before you buy it

[exiled reptile]

definitely boa

how can you be so sure? the pattern of it im guessing, because i have never seen a python with a pattern like that thats why i wanted to ask...I also just realized/notice the shape of its head is what a boa's head looks like, lol sorry for asking a stupid question
