Good lookin normal or something more?

I AM SOOOOOO excited,.. just lucked out on a great deal... 2448g 0.1 normal and 1159g 1.0 normal 55gal long tank hide and water dish 2 heat lamps for $100 bucks... I hate to say this because I see alot of people hoping there normals are pastels and asking what people think when it is very obvious but this girl is so light, and blushy what do you guys think. I couldn't be happier right now

To me it looks like a normal, but an incredible one! Lots of blushing genes going on that could really contribute to any breeding! Also very clean pattern. Pretty and bright too, good if you do want to breed to a brighter morph. Nice score!

she will be going in with a 1.0 butter in a couple months, we'll see what happens we know she hasn't been paired in over a year if ever due to the previous owners

I would say normal as well, although a good looking one.

And good choice pairing her with a butter, I'd like to see the results.

Oh trust me you will see them :) would be our first clutch if everything works out

Just wanted to add that the last picture is the male that we got with her.

4th pic, she looks chunky... are you sure shees not prego??
spooky

no pretty sure shes just CHUNKY lol could be wrong these two have been housed together for 3+ years and we just got them today

Yeah, that color could be the pre-ovy glow. Are you pairing them together right now?

Her head is very light. That doesn't make her a fire or a vanilla, especially if she's already glowing, but I'd also be interested to see what she makes when paired with a recessive morph, especially a bright one.

Thats kinda what I thought too but then again normals appear in all colors its just she has that creamy glow look to her the same that my females have gotten and that 4th picture really makes her look chunky.

She was housed with the male (last picture) for the last 3 years so she could be prego but I was under the impression that she was just very large... both of them refused feed going to wait a couple of days and try again. The previous owners informed us that it had been at least 3 weeks for the male and longer for the female. As we dangled f/t in front of them there were alot of defensive strikes coming from the female and a few from the male (he tagged me gently lol)

I agree with the possiblity of her being in Pre-Ovy Glow. If they were housed together for three years...That would make her sexually mature about now (assuming they were both hatchlings then). Do you know how to palpate?

Very nice bp's, look normal to me but they could be something else. Great deal. Very interesting that they were housed together. I alway's read thing's saying, you should eventually seperate them when adults. Feeding shouldn't be a problem just let them acclimate a bit.

No, I don't. She weighs in at 2488g so she's definitely breeding size. I'm hoping she's not pregnant, was really hoping to try a late pairing with the butter I'm picking up at the Cleveland show this weekend. Could you give me an idea on how to palpate?

The people we got them from didn't know any better. Bought them housed together & just kept them that way. Poor things stayed on top of each other in the one hide they had pretty much all the time from what I understand. Have them separated now, the male has some pretty serious tank aggression though, been tagged twice already.
