Img?

[2balls]

I'm new to the forum but I come here frequently for info. I recently took my daughter to a local reptile shop to pick out a bp for her birthday. She was going to ger a hatchling but then we spotted this one in a group labeled as "adult ball pythons". A breeder on IG said she looked like an IMG and showed me a pic on one that she has. As far as I could tell she looked identical but I'm new to the world of morphs and other anomalys. Is IMG something you all would agree on? She is a spectacularly creamy pale yellow on her aliens and dorsal spots/stripes and has an overlay on top of that of a dark grainy shade. The dirty/grainy/sandy look fades significantly as you look towards her tail end and her tail stripe is mostly the creamy yellow. She's beautifully unusual.

Beautiful yes, unusual maybe, I don't think it looks img.

Educate this newbie please, what is "img"?

"increased melanin gene"

it's a really cool fading thing that happens randomly throughout the ball pythons life. it's almost like the animal goes all grainy if that makes sense.

It's hard to tell if that is IMG..

Id like to see a pic of an IMG, never heard of that before.

i think its on worldofballpythons.com

EDIT:

No it's not hahah but it's on Ralph Davis's website.

Here are more pics. She does NOT look normal to me or anyone else who's seen her in person. It looks like I have a high contrast filter or hd filter on the pics but that's exactly how she looks.








And I also would like opinions on this shot that shows the two white spots. Are those ringers or just white spots? Thanks for all the help!

see that looks more IMG than the first pictures. Very curious.

It will be interesting to see her in a year or so.
