Um, i think I'd quarantine it for a very long time. It seems a tiny bit weird that so many of their snakes died all of a sudden like that. It's a gorgeous snake, but maybe make sure they didn't die of IBD?? 8( Nothing against the seller and not trying to panic you, but I'm paranoid and would want to know positively the cause of death of the others before making any purchases.
Looks like a leopard to my un-experienced eye!

Thanks guys for all the info. i spoke to the breeder and the genetics. of this morph seems to be co-dom. Her mother looked just like her and the breeder bought her for more then i payed for her. She gave me the snake because of what had happend with the others.
I also spoke to a Well known breeder here in holland that i know very good. he told me that he recently had the snake in hes hands while he was on a visit at the breeder i bought her from.
He also told me she was defestated of her loss and that the animals died do to an electrical prob. the care taker wasnt there on time.
Iam veryveryveryvery GLAD with this snake because it is a great project to begin with.
She offerd me a gen. Stripe male or a cinnamon female but i chose this "leopard/labyrinth" pastel even though ive got a yb pastel / super pastel and a normal pastel all females now she joined the group. I never ment to have this much pastels i gues this is just the way the cookie crumbled lol =)
ive collected the animal at the Houten show yesterday and shes just insane !!! i cant wait to produce more of em .. and btw i had my first clutch EVER yesterday !!! :D what a great fealing i feal like i was missing out all this years..!! THanks again mates for every one of you'all' comments ill keep you guyz updated.!! CHEERS!!!
