    What morph is my Ball?
    Hello there! I'm very new to this forum. In fact, this is my first post. I'm only just starting to branch out in BP's within my collection. My friend's son has got a BP that he's not taking care of, and him and his father want to give this to me. I'm just curious if she's a normal or a pastel, or whatever other she might be. I'm suspecting her to be a normal, but I'm only learning how to distinguish between the many many morphs out there. I hope you awesome people can help me out :)

    Granted, the lighting is a bit off as it was very dark up there. But I hope you can at least give me some clues or pointers. Thanks!

    Photo without the flash would be better.
    Cant tell anything from that photo.

    That's a pretty good sized ball. Really like the chocolate color between the alien heads. Looks like a nice Normal to me, but the flash can distort colors.

    Wow he is huge! It could be a lesser but we definetly need a daylight photo to tell. :)

    I see a normal but as said in all other posts need a day time photo with no flash to be sure
    also belly shots are helpful in identifying many morphs

    As promised, I've got a few more photos of this awesome girl. I'm hoping once I get her that I can switch her over to frozen. As it is my friend's son who's had her without proper care (temperature, humidity and f/t) Luckily she's not had any problems, but I still would prefer to give her proper temperatur/humidity/feeding control to prevent stress and health problems. I'm not entirely sure how old she is by now, but she's got a few shedding problems I hope to help her off with.

    The first picture of this post is probably the best one. I've saddly not got any belly pictures of her, but you can juuuuust see some of her belly in the first picture. Thanks again for all the answers! They're very much appreciated.

    Natural light, your flash is washing out the colors.

    These are better, but the lighting is still off. Think back to that dress post, with the whole blue & black / white & gold controversy.
    Natural or pure white lighting is your best bet for something so specific as differentiating BP morphs.

    With almost anything, no flash and a neutral (white, gray, black) background is the best way to get a true-to-life representation of colors.

    Sadly these are the only images I've got from my friend. I'm not sure if I can get any more photos of her. Idon't want to be nagging afterall. But thanks for all the answers, definatly helped. It was his sons first pet snake, so I can't imagine it being a very expensive morph.
