I guess I'll see what you guys think..... Pic heavy

Psuedo Clown finally got his health OK'd by the doctor and he's all free of his trichomonas infection and has taken a couple of ASF's for me so now it's PICTURE TIME!!! I'm normally "eh" about these threads but he's very odd looking. You can see where his name came from.

I got him because he was a neat dinker but I thought I'd see if anyone had any ideas if maybe he's actually a morph of some type?

So what do you guys think? Either way he's ADORABLE.

He's a gorgeous black-back with a reduced pattern. Both traits MAY be genetic in some animals. You'll have to see if the passes them on, to find out.

He is a very good-looking snake. :)

Black-back looks awesome in many combos, as does reduced pattern.

Ther a reduced pattern or black back maybe? Only way to see if its genetic is to prove him out!

He does look alot like a clown though. The coloring is just a bit too dark.

Yep that's exactly what I plan to do and hopefully it's genetic. Yea, he does, he just doesn't have the "clown head."

He's also the sweetest of the younger ones I have, hardly balls up at all even after weeks of us having to shove a syringe down his throat twice a day. So glad we're finally done with that.

He may not be a clown, but he's trying as hard as he can to make it!

I would certainly breed him, probably to a few different females to see what pops out.

Nice looking snake and I'd definitely try to prove him out; love his pattern, the reduced as well as the black back. If it's genetic, he would make some smokin' combos!

Wow thats a sweet lookin dude! Dink dink!

Just going to repeat the above responses.
1) hot snake :bow:
2) looks like a blackback & reduced pattern, both of which COULD be genetic

Very cool animal to have. I would breed him to try to get a female version of him :gj:. Your combo of genetic black back/reduced pattern could be deemed "The Pseudo Clown" :gj:.

He is super cute. I think he will make pretty reduced babied to whatever you breed to him. Though to me. still a normal till proven other wise.

Thanks everyone!!

It's like he wanted to be mine, with my clown obsession.

It would be SO cool if that happened and we could start our own version of a clown-like morph. Although I would still need at least a couple of the original clown morph :)
