With those two morphs (Sugar vs Calico), I'd go with whatever it was sold to you as. There are good people that will argue both sides of them being the same or different morphs.

Having said that, the pictures look more Calico to me. Guess which side I'm on. ;)

Edit: What I'm seeing could just be the quality of the Pastel variation in the combo though...

Yeah its hard to tell apart.. A friend told me the same thing

Any other opinions?

I'm by no means an expert, but the way I was taught was that sugars looked "melted" and calicos looked "spotted" or "pixelated". Which would put my opinion at what you have is a sugar.

But I have also never seen a Calico Sugar ball python, which if they were separate genes, one would expect to see happen. I think they are just different lines.

Yeah he is more on the melted side

I agree that Calico and Sugar may very well just be the same morph.
That being said, the higher-white calico morphs I've seen are more likely to be sold as sugars. Yours seems to fit that description. Only my $0.02

I have seen plenty of comparison pictures but still cant figure the type

To me it looks like a sugar, that being said you could try to email pictures of it to Mike Wilbaks who works with both genes and ask his opinion.

Is there a reason you don't believe the seller?
