    Cool The 1 Millionth Is This A Yellowbelly Thread

    Ok sorry guys. I have been looking at the hunters guide to morphs on yellow bellies and have been browsing around look at different pics of them. I still cant make up my mind so I would like some your guy's opinions. This is my newest (for now) addition, Zeuss. I knew he was different when I first saw him and I bought him from a friend. It didn't occur to me until last night that he may be anything but a normal. Which is still a possibility but after browsing around and looking, he really does have all the characteristics of a yellow belly. I just find it hard to distinguish for myself because I want him to be different lol and I would like to show him off anyway. It wouldnt bother me either way because I think hes a sharp looking little fatty. SO I would like some second opinions from some more trained eyes as to whether he is just an awesome normal or if he may possibly be a YB. He has very nice flames all the way up both sides extending from his belly. He is rather noticeably yellow on the sides of his belly with what looks to be touches of granite up and down him. His head is faded and it fades down around his neck. He is quite different from my other normal. SO what do you think?

    ****Disclaimer: Sorry for the bad pics. The lighting wasn't co-operating and he wouldnt hold still lol. Hes an explorer.

    Normal, his belly isn't right.

    Here's a YB belly:


    and:


    Notice the 'blurring' on the edges of the belly. Also, they tend to have head spots along with high flames:

    Two YBs:


    Head spots:


    Hope that helps! He's a nice looking snake, though. What a fatty.

    Do you know for a "fact" that your snake is a male?
    Sure has that "girlie" figure
