    Normal?
    Yes there are a ton of these posts haha, but I'm actually a big fan of the "is this a morph??".
    Anyway, this normal looks like it has a different pattern. I know it varies quite a bit animal to animal. Just was wanting some opinions of what you think may be going on? Or nothing at all

    and many people like these threads, because you get to see so many snakes and learn a lot.

    the picture is good, based on color and head i say its a normal, but the pattern surely is funky, i personally like such patterns very much.

    it wouldnt be the first time that such a weird pattern turns out to be genetic, but for now i would definitively say its a normal with a funky pattern :) Unless i missed something and someone else recognizes a morph here, meaning if its just the pattern, i would say chances are not high that its passed on genetically in a way that it can be isolated.

    There are 4 other siblings I'm waiting on photos for.
    Personally I'm not seeing a morph either, but also the pattern stood out to me. I love hearing opinions and thoughts though!

    The breeder has 4 females and 1 male, each for $50. I've been debating on picking a female up, because I'm also thinking morph or not, I'm digging the pattern. It's always great to have a nice normal

    Do the siblings have same patterns?

    I'm not sure yet, that's what I've been waiting for the most. I'd like to see if they show the same odd pattern

    If siblings all have same pattern I'd pick up a boy an girl. Would make me think more genetic but I think lots of things can mess with patterns. Wonder if anyone more knowledgable bout morphs can say for sure it's not one, its not one i know but I don't know everything sadly lol

    He has a really near pattern! Reminds me of a leopard.

    it reminds me an awful lot of that story of Brian Barczyks wife Lori picking out something from the african imports and keeping and breeding it, and she got ridiculed a bit by other employees for a while (probarbly exaggerated on snakebytesTV because she, with him, is the boss). And then she hit the super.

    http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/lori/ normal lori, you can totally see why people wondered WTF she was doing there. Not much to be seen here. She did see something somehow in there, and with her husband having the probarbly largest breeding operation on the american continents, trying out was easy.

    http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/super-lori/ KABOOM :taz::winner::taz: Few people on the planet can make out a lori but the super is just awesome.

    But its rare, most dinker projects fizzle out. But this may be one to breed, just to see, chances it will turn into something other than line-breeding for busy funky pattern are low. If it does translate into offspring, unfortunately you must inbreed to hit the super.
