    I agree that it has an "Enchi" look to it. Very interesting!

    What are the odds of someone having an orange dream and not knowing it, then breeding it and letting the babies go for next to nothing ?

    I'd say you've got a better chance of winning the lottery by playing the numbers 123456.

    I think the longer you look at some normals the more you see morphs in it, lol.

    I don't think it looks like a morph at all, just a very kewl looking normal :P

I'm not an orange dream expert by any means, but it looks way more like that to me than anything else. However, being that it's unproven and you have no way of knowing for sure what it's genetics are, then I would call it a normal and dink with it. It's definitely worth the effort.

    haha I can agree to that, thats why I've stopped looking at them so hard. This normal looks pretty sweet though. Even if it was slightly inheritable it could make some pretty cool looking snakes.

    Did you end up pickin it up? I think if the price were right, I'd prolly do it just simply because it looks cool, and I'm a sucker for the reduced pattern.

    I agree that the odds are low, but at the same time, I do often wonder how many of these "subtle" morphs slipped through the cracks before someone finally proved them out and they went on the radar as something to look for.

    I can't find the thread now, but I thought I recalled reading that Tom Baker's line of specials came from a unique-looking pet store female ...

    To the OP, I wouldn't get your hopes up for anything, but it never hurts to dink :P
