I got my baby girl Basil a few months ago. I bought her at Pets Unlimited sold as a normal. She's 6 months old and still pretty small cause she went on hunger strike for about a month, refusing to eat FT or live mice.
I know it would be pretty rare for a breeder to misidentify a morph as a normal (though I've heard of it happening with yellowbellies) but with every shed my girl gets lighter and lighter and looks less like a normal. Normal or anything else, I don't mind, she's beautiful regardless. I'm just curious of other people's opinions on her coloring.
I took these pics on my phone, as I don't have a better camera. I compared the photos to her and the colors are spot on. The first and second are in light. The rest are more in my shadow. She just finished shedding a few hours ago.
*She does have mites. I'm currently treating her for them*
