Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
I voted 1 and 3 as yb, basing on their belly patterns. And im definitely digging number 3!
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
One and three are Yellow Bellies, the others are Normals.
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
Well so far the 2 responders the answers kind of suprised me a little. What are you looking for when you see a yellow belly. Alot of the babies have a checkered stomach some like 4 and 5 but big flames going up and down the sides and the mark on the head. Do yellow belly have generally a cleaner belly? I may have to post the other 5 just to see maybe a part two
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
I also say 1 and 3. You can tell by the granite fleckling running down the side of the ventral scales.;) Not to mention, the colors of number 3 SCREAM Yellowbelly.

Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)

Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
Beautiful snakes, but I cannot help but notice the Claddagh ring. Is the person holding the snake engaged? I only ask because Claddagh's are me and my wifes wedding rings. :)
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
The ring is my wife's wedding band, I have have a similar ring but the heart in my ring is just gold, hers is an amethyst stone.
I will post the picture of both parent later on this evening.
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
Yep 1 and 3 and I Reeeeeeeaaaaaaaallyyyyyy like nr 3 :D
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
Well after some contact with the person I aquired the sire from, this is what I found out that my male "yellow belly" is a CH snake. It has been proven to produce ivories when breed to a BHB Yellow Belly. But since it is captive hatched he could have some other hidden suprises in him or prove out in the long run to be a whole Het new line. Below are some pictures of both the sire and the dame.

Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
I agree with the others - 1 and 3 are YB's.
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
They are nice babies but I never can tell. Once I produce Ivories I am just going to replace my yellow bellies. No guess work then! :D
Good Luck with the ID's and a big congrats on such a large clutch!
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
Like everyone else said... 1 & 3.

Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
1 and 3, but I accidently clicked 2 :taz: the belly pic on 2 wouldn't show up and I saw 3's belly instead :cool:
Its the clear belly, some have a TINY bit of freckling. The sides, where the belly and the pattern meets is a dead give away-the black splotches on the white between the black pattern that comes down to the belly. Look through the "hunters guide to morphs" it's a great thread. I don't really go by flames because too many people think that the flames are all you need for the snake to be a yellow belly. It especially makes me crazy when people ask if they have a yellow belly, but don't take pics of the belly :rolleyes: I'm glad you did!!! :gj:
Re: Yellow Belly Help (DUW)
1 & 3 :) Nice YBs, I especially like #3.
