Legolas and Gimli, need help identifying morph :)

Hey everyone,

I need some help identifying what morph my Legolas is besides Albino. His pattern is very different from other 'normal' albino Bp's I seen. I have some ideas on what he could be but I was hoping to get some feedback from you guys. His pattern is strange in the fact that it's extremely 'crowded' with side patterns fusing with the pale yellow stripe down his entire back leaving little white.

My second BP is my Piebald boy Gimli, this may be a little easier in the sense that i am just curious if he's a low white or medium white pied. His white is just so dappled everywhere that it's hard to tell lol.

Thanks everyone for reading, I'll try getting my pictures in here but if they don't show up these two boys are the only ones in my gallery.

Thanks,
Dragonsrahc

Wow, you've definitely got some beauties there! The albino looks absolutely insane; I can't give you more than a guess as to what he is, but he looks like what I would imagine an albino black pastel butter would look like. Fireball Reptiles actually has one they recently sold still up on morph market if you would like to take a look-- the picture isn't the highest quality but she looks a lot like your male.

Your pied is really pretty cool in my opinion, that smudgy paint-splatter saddle and how crisp the pattern and contrast is within the saddles themselves is interesting to me. Very cool mid-white pied!

Thank you so much for replying. Yeah, I have no idea what else he has in him other than albino, I was leaning more towards Mojave or cinnamon albino but still no clue lol but I didn't think of black pastel.

Of course! They're gorgeous animals and I love speculating on mystery morphs:cool:

I think it's very likely he has black pastel in him. Whether he has butter/lesser or he's just yellowed out in a nice way, I can't say... you should look up some pictures of albino butters though, they tend to have that pretty yellow glow coming up from the belly like yours does. And black pastel butters tend to have pretty crazy patterns just as a morph.

Do you think he might be an albino black pewter?

I saw this on UrbanAlbino's gallery.

Your snakes are gorgeous!

Personally, I think the pied could possibly be leopard? Those spotty saddle patches are reminiscent of the leopard morph to me.

Mojaves tend to have more of a defined dorsal stripe iirc. Or at least some do.

Beautiful snakes!! I personally especially love that pied beauty!
