Petstore pickup...what is it?

Hey,
I used to work at a petshop and the old crotchety owner picked up this snake from someone who didn't want it anymore. The guy tried to tell him that it was worth more than a regular ball but the old guy said "A ball is a ball" and gave him 20$ for it.

It's a female and is extra clean and eats f/t rats. For 70$ I couldn't pass it up.

What does everyone think?

Here are a couple of pics...alone, with a high blush normal for comparison and then against a white background.

Thanks,
Brandon

Wow! I have no idea what it is but it is absolutely stunning. $70!!! The only true way to tell is to breed it out, congrats on the new pickup, it's insane.

Looks kinda like a fire. I think, but not sure. Im no expert

i would test her colors with a fire or her cleanliness with a pastel :)

Shes pretty smokin. Worth every penny in my book. Id breed her to a fire for sure. Great pickup.

Love her! Shes a new "beige" morph ;) Smokin! Not really right color for a fire (to me) but check out that dorsal stripe!

Very pretty snake!

She is pretty, but what about quarantine? :confused:

Its a Fire. As fires age and shed, colors only get better.

Awesome pickup for the price! My first thought was a fire as well, but I'm not an expert on that morph by any means.

There is a SLIGHT chance it could be a Normal that is going though a color change. But youll know once it sheds again.

but its not uncommon to see spiders,pastels,fires,ybs at petshops since their dropping in price.

I agree. Both of my local non-corporate pet shops regularly have lower priced morphs available. If she is a fire, she's great looking. I know they get better with age, but her pattern and how light she is already is impressive.

Looks like a fire to me. A nice fire to boot.

I'm gonna say Fire as well.

Heck of a nice pickup, even if she's only a normal.

Definately would since you got her from a pet store, you don't want anything spreading to your other snakes.

i have a male that looks just like that gal ;) it mite be an IMG

Looks Fire-ish to me as well! Awesome pick-up!

Great pick up! Would go great with a Pastel!

Post a belly pic of her! I lean towards fire, too! Great, beautiful snake!

Wow!!! I say fire as well. If that's what she proves out to be you hit the jackpot for $70!!!

Definitely not IMG. I have a big IMG female and she's nothing like that. No splotches or anything at all. But I would agree with fire. I love random pickups. I just got what I suspect to be a Spector off c-list for $50... I'll find out in a couple months haha

looks like a fire... nice find!
