    Ideas?
    So I got these two girls a short while back from a guy who didn't have room for them. Yes I do know they are both a little on the thin side, they are VERY picky eaters so I did get a good price on them. Most of the time they take asf rats, have gotten 1 to take a couple of small rats. I've been able to get a couple of snakes off asfs and rats only so I agreed to take them in. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on morphs?

    possible Het albino girl

    And this one that was told is a Ghana import?

    PS will not consider breeding these two girls until I can get them eating reliably and put some weight on. Just curious on thoughts of morphs and such at this time. Thank you!

    If you have an ablino male, no harm trying to prove out the het. I do like her reduced pattern.

    Love the import, I'd throw a YB or specter male to her and see what happens.

    well only way to find out about the poss het is to try and prove her out, not much more to it than that. When people refer to Ghana, they are normally referring to the sub-species of ball python that get huge so basically all it tells you is she might get really big, its not a morph. Good luck

    OP - Your animal in the 1st pic looks really interesting, i'd be line-breeding that one for sure

    Think you're getting confused with 'Sub-Saharan' or more specifically 'Volta' balls - It's the Volta region animals that get BIG

    When people normally refer to Ghana, thats what they are referring to. They seem to be called quite a few things. I never liked Sub-Saharan, since that covers ball pythons entire natural habitat range, any ball python could be called it technically. Volta is inside of Ghana, so yes more specific.

    The first pic has a really nice reduced pattern. I would see if that trait gets passed on.
