    Is my BP a pinstripe morph?
    Hello, I was curious if anyone can confirm that the BP I got is a pinstripe or not? She also looks close to a spider as well. I am new to this and obviously I'll still love her either way. Lol. So I'm just curious.

    I'd never call myself a morph expert, but he looks pinstripe to me. Someone more experienced will have to comment on if they see another morph visable.

    From what I can tell just Pinstripe.

    She looks to be in blue in the second image. If you haven't seem her post shed yet, she's going to amaze you once she's in her new colours.

    Nikkubus is the undisputed genetics encyclopedia here, and I'd agree with their assessment that she's just pin.

    Spider doesn't tickle my taste buds personally, too anxious over the head wobble that can occur with them, but it is possible to breed it out apparently so there is good spider specimens out there if you carry on collecting and like the spider gene!

    I don't think I'm the undisputed expert. I have made some oversights here and there, but probably have a larger pool of knowledge than most. It really depends on the morph/combo.

    You may be think of a Spinner which is Pinstripe + Spider? Pinstripe on it's own doesn't have the spider wobble stuff :)

    You are to me and probably many others, and the most knowledgeable to the best of my (limited) knowledge!

    Apologies, I should have been more clear. I meant just the spider gene. I am a fan of the pinstripe having a breeding enchi pin here. Pairing her with the pastel spotnose this season, hoping for a large, successful clutch, strong genetics and some nice visuals ��

    Yes she shed earlier last week about 3 or 4 days after we got her, and yes she is definitely beautiful!

    And that's why I was wondering, because I was trying to avoid the spider morph for that reason. The pet shop owner said she was a pinstripe and I figured she was. I just wanted to ask people who were more experienced with ball pythons specifically.

    Spinner (Pinstripe + Spider) would have really reduced black striping to where it was more dashed on the dorsal and almost no black striping on the sides so I don't think you have anything to worry about there :)
