Re: What morph is this? pics
think she's only a normal...
what an absolutely crazy pattern tho!
Re: What morph is this? pics
did you pick him up as a supposed visual or a het? Because to my eye he's looking pretty normal. I don't really see any of the subtle morphs (fire, yellow belly, enchi, granite, phantom/mystic/whatever).
What was he sold to you as?
Re: What morph is this? pics
i know its got the coloration of a normal but ive never seen those "stripes" going across the body like that. Plus there are no markings what so ever on the belly. I know that the clear belly can be on some normals too but with a pattern like that AND a clear belly?? something has to be genetic or that is one big coincidence lol

Normals vary, A LOT.
Sometimes arrant patterns can be due to a lot of things in incubation. I've heard of a stressed egg theory--dehydrated or otherwise stressed eggs tend to produce babies that have strange patterns but they aren't inheritable.
what was he sold to you as?
Re: What morph is this? pics
Yeah looks pretty normal to me.
Re: What morph is this? pics
He was sold to me as a yellowbelly but i never thought he was. I was just hoping he would be something else, maybe he could prove out, idk.
But I have heard of the whole stressed egg theory too. A friend of mine moved his eggs to a different incubator in the middle of incubation and all the babies came out with a full stripe down the back, none of it genetic though. So that couldve been the case with this guy
Re: What morph is this? pics
He has some pretty flames but that is no yellow belly as you already know.
Normal :snake:

that last part is pretty darn interesting
Re: What morph is this? pics
I've got a girl over here that looks just like that. She just went through her pre-lay shed so I'll know in a few months if mine is at all genetic. I've also seen a few similar ones that were said to be genetic.
Re: What morph is this? pics
she looks almost idetical to my normal. but my normal has a little more yellow-ish on her sides almost touching her belly . but than again mine was wild caught so who know what she could possibly have in store for me in the long run.... lol
Re: What morph is this? pics
im no morph expert but that looks like a normal to me.

well let me know if you find it to be genetic, we could have run across the same gene somehow... now wouldnt that be interesting haha.
im planing on breeding this guy out in the future but it will be a year before he can breed. he is still a youngster
Re: What morph is this? pics
yea looks like a normal to me
