    Alright this is Hathor she just shed in this picture and has shed several times since the photo and right after her shed she looks like this I have never been to a show so i'm not sure what they are supposed to look like but from my understanding being iridescent all the time is ghost... is this correct sorry for being a newb

    no, not a ghost, ghosts have a kind of hazy appearance

    the difference wont always be as noticable though, the amount of lack in black pigments varies from snake to snake

    She looks a lot like my 100% Het for Clown female, Agnes.
    She's also extremely iridescent.

    Her dark bands have a "rainbow effect" going on.

    [and no, I have no idea what that "means"]....LOL

    Not a ghost, but really pretty banded pattern and an interesting faded head spot.
