    Re: Need a deescription of these morphs please?
    I was sure to ask about the temperament of the last (first one) one I bought. I got her from Royal Constrictors and that guy was really nice and good to work with. I am open to using other breeders, but I want someone to be onest with me about if I am getting an aggressive snake or not. I do not want an aggressive snake, because I am blind and I like to touch things since I can't see them.

    Re: Need a deescription of these morphs please?
    I always try to not put my hands in her space when it is the day of feeding, or 2-3 days after feeding. So far, that has helped me not get bit. I figure if you respect their space and respect their time needed to feed and digest, that gives me (the human) the best chance of not getting bit.
    I will consider getting a spray bottle though, in case I get the 2nd kind of bite were she won't let go.

    Because I don't interact strictly with only other blind people. I want a showy snake for those in my life that can see. I also have an imagination, and like anyone else I like nice things.

    I'm glad you came for assistance! Personally, my favorite morph is the Pewter, which is sort of greys and browns mottled together with the busy typical pattern, and if you get lucky there are some lavender tones in there too. =]

    Thanks for the input. That does sound interesting, but don't they look kind of bland?

    Pewters don't look bland at all IMO. They're beautiful snakes. It's a matter if personal opinion, though. Everyone has a different idea of what beauty is...

    This also could be a thing where being blind and not being able to see it fools the mind. I just want something that will "pop" and is pretty. If that makes sense...

    If you want something that 'pops' and is visually pleasing, I suggest a pied or good old fashion albino. They remain stunning throughout their entire life. Most other morphs dull quite a bit as they age unless they have hypo. Hypo gene makes everything nice as well.

    Albino is a white and yellow snake. The pattern of the snake is yellow on top of the white. This is always a fan favorite for everyone.

    Pied is a snake that has various white segments. For example, the head and neck can be patterned black and gold while the rest of its body is pure white.

    Some other Pieds have a patterned head and a few sections with more black and gold pattern. Between each patterned section is pure white. So its almost like someone cut up two snakes and put them together.
    I hope that makes sense...

    Re: Need a deescription of these morphs please?
    Ok, so when you say yellow on an Albino, are we talking like an off-white or creamy yellow... or is it more like a goldish/ school bus yellow? What is the difference between a high white albino and a normal albino?

    Also, can someone explain the pastel and super pastel?

    You guys are helping me narrow my list. :)

    If you get a high contrast Albino, they are light orange as babies. But have a lovely, sunflower yellow coloration as adults. So they are sunflower yellow and pure white.

    High white just means there's a lot of white in their pattern and on their body than normal. I personally don't like high white albinos. The yellow is their trade mark in my opinion.
