Is this a Calico?
Simple thread asks for simple answers. I have seen the father of this animal and can confirm it is a medium white calico.
Based on the head spot, bright edging around alien heads, reduced tail pattern and het pied style markers I say yes. There isn't really any visible white speckling from what I have been told.

Thanks all! The seller claims it is 'Tom Crutchfield line' and I left that info out of the first post because if you google it, this guy's ad is about the only thing to pop up. It is what made me most suspicious, though. He has other snakes for sale at good prices, so perhaps I'll go look in person for the others...

It's the third snake pictured here:

The price is VERY good... so definitely no? Sad face :(

The first two are but the third one nope. Sorry

I wouldn't buy it anyway, my phone usually finishes off what I want to search, & I typed in "Tom Crutchfield", the first thing to try and be the finisher was "Tom Crutchfield arrested". Once, in '99 & what I'm assuming was '11.
Edit: what I'm trying to get at here, is the line of snake may have some defects, ect.

I'd pass. The first two on the ad are calicos, but that last one is doubtful.

I'm not seeing calico at all on that girl. And IMO, the first two don't look so great either, and they ARE calicos. I'd pass.

The Tom Crutchfield from the reptile industry is a well respected OG in the game. I'm pretty sure he pioneered the captive breeding of a lot of species in the hobby. I could also be entirely wrong about that.
I'm going to pass but check out his other snakes. With any luck he will throw that 'calico' in for free as he seems pretty desperate to downsize.
