    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.

    Yes i took it personal :rolleyes:.You asked for our opinions then when EVERYONE said it was not a YB you wondered yourself.So you basicly wasted our time.Now that someone showed you pics of the shelf this animal come from(this is a new one by the way :rolleyes:) you are reasured we were wrong.Did he also show you the egg it come out of? :8: :8: :8:

    It doesn’t matter if your camera sucks. Just because its a 10mp doesn’t matter. MP has nothing to do with the quality of a camera. I am a photographer and know pretty well about that. All MP have to do with the camera is the largeness of print quality.
    SO I am not trying to be rude, but to me its just an excuse you have.
    The flash cannot wash out that much color, and in ever single picture you have taken.

    To me you don’t care about our opinions anymore. Because you asked for one, and then when it wasn’t the answer you wanted you started to go against people. Then you got rude! I think you are just ashamed to admit that you got jacked. Plain and simple. That isn’t a freaking YB.

    Just because this random dude at the petshop said it was, doesn't make it right. And if he should you picks and the patterns matched i highly doubt that. Snakes do not look the same as hatch-lings, then as adults. Patterns and colors change quite a bit. SO i think he is BS and is brainwashing you!
    Also seems like he might be lying and saying Amir is he boss, when clearly a couple of post back. People know for positive that he does not own a petshop. Seems like he is just filling you with lies, and you are continuing to believe him.
    Also why would you put a petshop animal with your ivory? He needs to be quarantined!

    I'm just reading this thread. I agree that your new addition is not a yellowbelly, and I totally understand how you could be a bit defensive. When we get our feelings hurt or our pride smeared, it is human nature to act inappropriately. With time, as we mature we learn to control it. Just understand that its a good practice to be a reflective person. Think about the situation you are in, and the advice from professionals. I would never to the doctor's office and argue with him. If I don't agree with him, I will get a second opinion. In your case, you have received multiple second opinions from what I consider professionals at this hobby. They have ALL agreed that your animal is not a yellowbelly. Instead of thinking of BP.net as your enemy, let us help you. If you're attitude were different, someone could have felt really sorry for you and your situation and offered you one of their YBs for a discount price. In the future, I suggest you choose not to bite the hand that feeds you with priceless friendships and knowledge that this forum provides.

    Respectfully,
    Marc

    That is not a YB and I don't see how a picture of a clutch of Ivories would prove anything espically since its a male and not on a clutch of eggs...even then it would still be hard to prove those Ivories came from that female. Good luck.

    A snakes pattern will not change as it ages.

    Hi,

    The pattern does stay the same - though the colours can change fairly drastically on occasion.

    Ditto... I ID'd an almost two year old snake (the person wanted to know if the snake they bought was indeed a possible het recessive that I had hatched and then sold) last week from a pic of it leaving the egg.

    It was the only pic I had of the original snake.

    Heh,

    I've been taking pictures of all the hatchlings and putting them into degei for the same reason. I just set it to hide sold snakes but if I saw a female snake for sale locally I could check the patterns to make sure I wasn't buying back one from my own genepool. :D
