Tinley...saw Pete Kahl's "Candy Ball"..wow

Did anyone else get to see Pete Kahl's "Candy Ball" at Tinley park? Wow, I was blown away by it. It's a recessive, albino-ish, looking morph. If albino < lavender albino, then lavender albino < < < < < candy ball. It's yellow, purple and absolutely amazing. I believe PK had het males for $5k or so. I was soooo gonna buy one, but I realized I left my $5k in my other pair of pants....along with my keys to my Lamborghini.

There is a picture of the candy ball on this BLBC thread, scroll towards the bottom.

At Pete's table, I was talking with this guy about PK's stuff....this gent had black hair and his voice seemed really familiar. Turns out it was Adam Wysocki, it was pretty cool to meet him in person. :)

Hmm...that one looks like a clown combo, in my opinion. The candy ball didn't have a reduced pattern like that, at least not the ones that I saw.

I too believe that is a banana clown. A Candy looks a tad bit like the Banana ball python, but has it's own characteristics that stand out.

It doesn't look that much different from a lav albino...

I talked with pete kahl not to long ago and we were talking about the candy and the toffee, they are the exact same animal,the toffee is the name given by the guy who owns it in canada and pete named it the candy. htachlings look like real nicde albinos then start to change after 5 sheds or so. and they are not like the lavenders they are much darker.

His adult Candy is the nicest bp I've ever seen in person. Really fantastic animal.

Here's one of Pete's baby candies after a few sheds:

Big Gunns gets no repsect.:tears::tears:

"Pete named it the Candy" pffffftttttt ;):D

The candy and the toffee are exact the same? Then I assume the picture shown in the OPs post is not fully matured then? I saw this beauty before:

Looks much different and 10x better imo.
