    Evening
    Morph Market snake?
    Hey guys, I was searching for a super lesser on morph market and found this: https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...scr.com/oe9kze
    It was listed under super lesser. I thought it might be a lesser mojave because of the yellow stripe. Can super lessers have striping or do they stay solid white through their lives?

    It's probably not a super lesser. On outback reptiles website, they state that she was sold the them as a super lesser, indicating that they don't know what she is.

    When in doubt, ask the seller to subject their leucistics to black light testing. Super Lessers and 100% white pieds will have no visible pattern under blacklight.

    That's interesting, do you know if ivorys show pattern under blacklight? With the yellow dorsal and what looks to be black eyes, I would of guessed it was an ivory.

    This is not correct. ALL BluELs can develop a dorsal stripe so it is very possible that animal is indeed a SuperLesser

    Yes, Ivories also show a dorsal under blacklight

    The animal in question is certainly a BluEL. The only reason the eyes look darker is because they are in shadow with the head being pulled back under the body
