    Morph that looks like Clown with a different name?
    Strange question, I know. I adore the Clown pattern. However a huge amount of my friends and family can't take the word "Clown". But in their defense it's a very common and reasonable fear.

    Anyone have pointers to a morph that looks similar to a Clown with another name? Thanks

    WHAT? ������ y don't u name it and call it that. Clown is just the morph name. Not a single reason to be afraid of the snake unless it's the snake itself. Simply a genetic mutation, try explaining it differently.

    Many years ago a breeder from Wisconsin produced a snakes that looked a lot like the clowns (I think it turned out to be a new line of clown) he was calling it the Circus ball at the time, but I don't know if that name is still used

    Adam Chesla produced very recently a super blade pastel Leopard. It looks a lot like a clown minus head stamp. That or you could just buy a clown (or clown combo) and call something else around your friends and family. lol

    Bamboos are absolutely stunning in my opinion. I'd definitely like to have one in the future

    I name all of my animals. It doesn't change the fact that the morph name is "Clown", so saying that word is inevitable.

    The problem is people do ask about it. All I asked is what morphs look like a clown. That's really what I wanted to know.

    Its simple if someone ask what kind of morph it is lie, just say its a circus ball python or something, makes more sense to just avoid using the word instead avoiding owning a morph you clearly like

    Common? Possibly. Reasonable.... No... No it is not in the slightest bit. Given the fact that these animals are just named clowns and not the actual clowns that people with the completely illogical phobia have really makes this even that more unreasonable.

    I was actually referring to the fear of clowns, not the Clown morph. But I can understand the problems that those with bad phobias face, because I myself have an embarrassing (and rare) phobia. Hearing the name of what I'm afraid of makes me extremely uncomfortable.
