    A normal colored wild type ball python with some banding
    Pretty would be another descriptor ;)

    i thought she might be a pastel or something, cause she's got green eyes and white lips and some blushing in the black. Just my luck she started to shed and now eyes are blueish and milky. but when she's done with sheding i'll post new pic's up and better pics of her head.

    Wild type/normal! Sometimes their eyes can be lovely greenish yellow where the lighter part of their patterning hits the eye! Also, "normal" isn't a bad thing, that's why I like calling them "wild type" instead.. Some people treat 'normal' like it's a bad word, but I think it's all about the beauty of the individual snake, not what morph names you can tag onto it(not that there is anything wrong with morphs, I just think some people take the gene itself more seriously than the way it looks!) Some wild type ball pythons have the most incredible patterns, great blushing, and outshine even some nice quality morphs! And even if you were into breeding, those genes can often be passed down to the offspring, so even if you don't have the best looking pastel out there, a bright beautiful normal can still help create higher quality pastel babies! :D :D

    I personally love the funky patterns on your gal! She's also has a very clean looking pattern! Oooh, those bright outlines near the bottom of the patterns are going to shine beautifully as she ages. My ball python had markings like those that have now become thick pure white outlines as he's grown! The contrast is lovely against his very dark scales :D

    okay thats cool she is a very lovable BP and her markings are great, we have had her for a week now and she know all of us, the kids she holds onto but if i hold her or my wife she goes limp and she dont hold on, she even likes to be petted lightle and rubbed on her head(from the eyes back), she likes to look or feel the ceiling fan when you walk under it with her.
