Wta
Guys,

Looks a lot like my Fire, I'd say probably. . .

Re: Wta
I don't think I'm seeing fire in the female, the male is definitely a fire! This is one of my normal females that has very similar color and blushing and she is just a normal.

Fires tend to have a lot of small dark spots on the lower sides of the aliens and the head color is a redish brown with the head spot faded even lighter then the head color.

Maybe some shots of the head in good natural lighting would help, along with closer up shot showing the actual color of the snakes body would help, my first thought is yes she's a fire, but I wouldn't swear to it without pictures in natural light.

the first snake you posted (which I'm assuming is the female, since you alluded to a second questionable male) looks like a fire to me. I don't have the best eye for such identifications, but she appears to be a fire from those pictures. the second snake certainly is interesting, but doesn't appear to be a fire.
if you need to allay any doubts or fears, the only foolproof way to find out would be to breed them. if a black-eyed leucistic with random splotches of orange crawls out of an egg, then both are fires. until then, I'll leave it to the more experienced members here to render their opinions.

Knowing the lineage of your snakes helps. An animal definitely won't be a fire if neither of its parents was a fire. It is a much more subtle morph than, say, an albino, and plenty of normals can have the appearance that is typical of fires.

Re: Wta
I'm still not seeing fire after the second set of photos, but I definitely see something I would dink around with. Almost looks ghost like, or maybe het ghost. Your male is a fantastic example of the fire morph though, don't see that many like him.
Like others have said though, breed her to your fire male and if you get a leucistic snake you will have your answer. How many grams is she?

I agree, at first glance I say fire, but we definitely need some better pictures that the lighting doesn't through off her color. Some normals can look absolutely amazing under the wrong lighting.
For example
In a tad too much lighting

In natural lighting

In just about perfect lighting

Those were all of the same snake on the same day, but he looks pretty different in each one. (I have been calling this guy the orange thing, and I'm trying the same breeding again this year to see what happens)

Looks more Ghost to me. I do not see fire. Color and Belly marks say its not a fire to me.
