How do you guys feel about freckles?

So, how do you guys feel about freckling in banana ball pythons??

For me, I honestly just don't like the look of them. To me it makes banana ball
python have a less refined look. I wanted a banana ball python soooo badly and tried to get over all the
freckles, but I just really couldn't, which is how I ended up with my pastel :rofl:
It also constrasts soo strongly with the white and yellow.

I accept them as part of the morph. I think they give the Banana a distinctive look.

I love the paradoxing honestly. I think it looks neat.

Like a banana cookies and cream snake!

I'm with you... I don't care for the speckling so much. Maybe that's why I fell in love with the Candies. It reminds me of a banana with no specks. lol

Hate them. Seem to clean up when you mix them with other genes pretty well though.

I love them. Only bad part was checking to make sure each one was not a mite when they were coming in. Drove me nuts!

Not to hijack your thread but I figured this would be a good place to ask. I have a pastel male(I was told) he seems to have freckling on his sides but not on the top* portion of his body. Is this normal?

I like freckling in general, it adds a sense of individuality to the snake.

I love it. Actual banana fruits get black spots when they age, and I think it's just so adorable that the snakes do too.

It seems fundamentally appropriate for the morph. That said, I prefer the freckling to be minimal - I like some, but not too much, which is why I love Spider on Bananas, I think. Eyeing a Fire Spider Banana currently... but it's a boy, and I really wanted to get a female... Of course, I also prefer that the fruit be a bit green, without any spots!

Oh, you're one of those. I like my nanners perfectly yellow, no green and no spots. The former is too weird and gummy and coats my mouth, the latter is too mushy and sweet. Unfortunately most of the time I buy bananas which always seem to bypass the ripe stage and go from green, to greenish yellow with spots, to mushy and black.

Yeah, I really don't like them. I've heard that super bananas don't develop spots though.

I love them! I need to add a Banana to my collection so bad... a freckly snake for a freckly girl <3

Completely agree - it's all in the name I love bananas the fruit and the morph - they get even sweeter with freckles.

I used to only fancy the pied morph but the bananas are really growing on me.

The freckles are one the main reasons I was interested in the morph. I like anything that looks like it should not be there on an animal, when it comes to pattern.

I'm a fan, they look like a banana and bananas have them. Pretty perfect morph name if you ask me.

Than again I love Dalmatian crested geckos too

I just like spots

i love it, its their signature thing.

Here's my male coral glow het pied. He has freckles but I didn't really think about it because my goal is to make a coral glow pied! Top snake is mine, middle is what I want to make (eventually). I actually thought coral glows had more orange and bananas had more yellow until my little orange baby snake turned into a bright yellow sub adult!
