Morph identification help

I recently acquired a ball at a local mom and pop pet shop in my area and was told it was a clown morph but based on it's color and head pattern I'm almost positive it's something else. The shop owner told me a local breeder got evicted from his apartment asked him to take care of his collection (approx. 12 snakes) while he found a new place. After a month the guy stopped paying and he hasn't seem or heard from the guy in three months. The shop owner is now selling off the snakes to cover his costs.

If you guys can help me identify the morph I might go back for the rest of the snakes or at least some of them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I breed crested geckos and actually traded a few for the new snake.

Nope, that's not a Clown. It pretty much looks like a Lesser (Lesser Platinum) to me :)

Did the breeder leave any identifying papers for the mom and pop shop? If so it might help you find out what you're dealing with. The snake you purchased seems to be a really nice lesser, the guy probably meant het clown...

I agree with the lesser. Pretty nice looking one too. I hope you didn't pay clown prices for it.

You were correct it is a het clown. The shop owner found the papers and I'm going back on Monday to get the male and another female.

The best thing is a didn't pay a dime I traded 4 crested babies. Apparently it's easier to sell crested geckos around Christmas time then it is het clown balls Lol.

Since the snakes were abandoned the shop owner is only looking to cover his cost I'm getting the other two balls for $150.
