    High Oranges

    I believe I posted far back about a petco bought, unusually orange baby ball python. And I bought her because she stuck out among the other normals with her orange. Growing out of the Morph craze, I assumed she was normal, and months passed- she shed and shed and grew... I even got her and my other sexed. Both of my balls are girls. I'm really proud of their growth!
    Anyway, I find it worthwhile to say she is still orange. Her odd coloring gets more intense around her tail, and what else is cool is that she got slightly more orange since being bought. I don't believe she's any morph like an OD but what I was thinking of doing was line breeding that color. I might shoot a cell phone picture once she sheds for you all, but for now, I want to ask- what are some unusually colorful normal ball pythons you guys have seen?

    Excuse my grammar; I don't recommend kindle fire for forums. Or anything for that matter.

    I now feel like its my duty to post pics of this snake once she finishes her shed cycle. Believe it or not, her orange side colors are starting to bleed through the milky haze of her shed. (She looked like the typical milky brown the first time she shed for me. As she grows, it seems to intensify. It makes me wonder if selective breeding in the future could reduce an animal like this from browning out too much... ) I may have something special here! Let's hope this dinker is an inheretible trait.

    Yeah, that's what I'm theorizing. But it hasn't happened yet...
