    See, he was addressing Joepythons, while talking about Amir. I think Amir is a pretty well known name on here, so it wouldn't be mistaken.

    :)

    Ahh got confused. Okay that is clarified.

    It might be as simple as getting some newer "better" pictures to post, being a yb owner and having produced yellow belly's, by the photo's you posted it just doesn't like quite right.

    I couldnt agree more, but unfortunately I am stuck with my crappy camera until I can find a better one. The pics I took with the 10 megapixel made no difference, I'm going to need a much better camera.


    So everyone knows, cause I know how it can get on these forums. Im not here to argue with anyone, I am here to learn. If I disagree with something I may have good reason, but don't take it personally. I havent.

    That wouldn't change the snakes patterns though - which are the things that are making us say it is not a yellowbelly - the colour really isn't the determining factor.

    On post 47 I posted some pictures of different snake. Who can identify the Yellowbelly?

    I'm sorry to keep saying it but you probably just paid $150 for a normal male then.

    He can say it is a yellowbelly all he likes - I can also say the sky is green and made of kiwi fruit. :(

    In your post the kingsnake pictures do not show for me at all but the snake in the linked album does indeed look like a yellowbelly - it has great flames and blushing and the typical border to the belly.

    I'm not kidding when I say contacting Amir is the best way forward - I'm sure he would be delighted to hear if someone is using his name to sell fake morphs and would be equally happy to correct any accidental misunderstandings if this is all some mistake.

    But your snake has none of the markers people expect from a yellowbelly and if you only wanted to make yellowbellies from your ivory you could have bought a male normal for $40. :(

    Amir actually still owns a shop here in Miami. It's just not on sunset. The name is "Snakes". On u.s. 1 and 180th if I recall. Don't really remember the location. I don't do business with him.

    Hi,

    I just realised that, while people posted pictures of their yellowbellys nobody linked to the hunters guide on them.

    So here it is. :)

    Okay I just got off the phone with the kid who gave me the Ivory. He bought the Ivory from the same exact place that this supposed yellow belly came from, Snakes at Sunset. Snakes happens to be the name of this place here in Gainesville, and after another quick phone call I found out they are both owned by Amir. So its looking like this situation can be corrected fairly easy.
    I am going to Miami tomorrow for my Christmas break. I will be taking both my Ivory and the other snake and I am going to settle this mess. Thank you all for your opinions and inputs.

    By the way all the photos you see on post 47 are Yellowbellies, ALL of them. They came from breeder shots, so all you pro spotters out there, I hope you were correct on identifying them, if not please stop trying to identify snakes. <-- Not a personal attack but rather a general message.

    You could have possibly done your homework on yb's a little more as well instead of coming on here posting a normal and because you had someone tell you why it's a yb, you come on here and tell everyone they're wrong.... <---- just saying. Not a personal attack

    My homework actually turned out to be correct. He is a yellow belly, the guy who sold it to me just finished proving it to me, i got back from the pet store. So this thread is officially over.

    Thank you all for your opinions, I do mean that, and for those that took any of my comments personally, I apologize, but I have realized that I over estimated these forums. You can't get all your answers through the internet.
