    Are you sure it isn't the glare of the light making you think it's eyes are blue? I'm seeing the brown eyes of a normal.. Slightly lighter on the top half due to the stripe..

    When I think of unusually blue eyes on a dark snake that shouldn't have blue eyes I think of this..

    I wondered that myself, but I have analyzed in different lighting and they are still bluish. My girlfriend actually pointed it out to me. There's no mistaking the bluish coloring in person. I know how this sounds, I've read this forum up and down. " Hi I have this extremely normal ball python..... But I swear it's a champ, enchi, fire, spider, yb het for everything."
    I'm don't want people to see me as that guy, I'm not that guy lol.
    But something is off about him, I wish he was of age to try and prove something in him.
    Thanks for everyone's help, hopefully he lightens up even more and gets nicer as he ages. Either way he should be a nice addition to clean and color up some other projects.

    But if he was any of those his belly would be clean. Can we see a couple good belly pics?

    I'm not sure if you caught my sarcasm.... I was saying I'm not here saying he's every morph under the sun. I just think he has something going on, and was hoping to see if anyone felt similar.
    They only morph he resembles to me is enchi. But like I said " resembles" I'm by no means saying he is an enchi... I'm just curious if people see something.
    I'll get some belly shots over in a few unless I didn't catch your sarcasm lol

    Looks like you have a really nice patterned normal.

    He just ate tonight so his belly pics are a little flattened out.

    I don't really see anything super crazy with his belly.... But what do I know, I thought he looked like an enchi 😜

    He IS a really nicely colored baby, no doubt about it.

    I don't think he's anything enchi, truthfully that banding doesn't always mean enchi. About the blueish eyes, I have discovered it is not uncommon for very young balls to have blueish eyes. I had several mojave and normal hatchlings that had it.

    He looks nearly identical to a normal I one had from a pet store. { I know, I know } His banded and reduced pattern make him worth a shot at breeding, just to see if he passes it on.

    You know looking at his belly pics, he even has the "het pied" tracks there for just a bit. Sometimes we want our guys to be something special so badly. I had high hopes for a baby I hatched. She was really light and had a faded head and some nice blushing. She was from a vanilla pairing, and I really wanted her to be a vanilla. But sadly, she never changed enough for me to say she's anything but a super nice normal. It sucked because I want a vanilla female so bad.

    Your little guy is very nice. The longer you look at him, the more traits you can pick out. His belly flames, banded pattern, some blushing, and that lovely peachy color on his sides that I've seen over and over again, that sadly never lasts past about 300 grams. I could see me dinking around with him, just because he really is a cool baby.

    The yellow on the sides is just like my het girl, and is gorgeous, but I don't think it means anything. Enjoy him, and if you want to you can breed him when he's older.
