Need help with this one

Ok so I recently posted a picture of my enchi clown that will be arriving tuesday. The seller (lonestar animal adventures) tells me that my clown boy could potentially have another gene mixed I'm there due to his brightness.

The parents are a plain old enchi het clown...nothing special and the mother is just a het clown

I'm adding a pic of my boy and a pic of the enchi het clown sibling. He looks othing like dad and much brighter just like my boy. Do you guys see something we are missing?

Any way yellow belly sneaked in and was over looked? It does have some blushing on the dorsal stripe which freedom breeder Jessie said is one way to tell if it's there can not see the belly to see if any more pattern or flames great looking animals for sure:gj: Hope you guys solve the mystery soon.:D

Possibly fire? At least that’s my guess, anyone who knows for sure?

Ok so I spoke with Grace at lonestar and got pictures of the dad and siblings. We feel so sure that there is something we can't Id. Below I'll post seperated to make this easier. The mom is a completely normal looking het Clown.

The enchi het clown sibling and other sibling

Look at the last pic that definitely doesn't look. Normal right? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e7b4fd35e6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d674451f9c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...87f45e9f03.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8c1113d26a.jpg

Is special a possibility? What about vanilla? Very subtle but I see what you mean about them being kinda weird.

So I'm going to be perfectly honest. I have received my enchi clown and although he is a cutey his color doesn't compare to the pics that were sent to me before purchase. Upon receiving him i realized that he looks like a hood enchi clown with nothing extra. Most likely the seller was using filters or photo editers.....lesson learned.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5e43e7c5ec.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...097140f5d6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bc790af0fe.jpg

Sorry to hear he doesn’t look in person like he did in the photos. Still a beautiful snake, though.

Yeah ... that's a truly beautiful Royal !!

that's still a killer looking animal u have. u have to keep in mind a few things: 1) the breeder did not advertise it as anything more than Enchi Clown and the pairing that produced it was Enchi het Clown x het Clown; 2) nothing crazy popped out of the in the clutch just what was expected: Enchi Clown, Enchi het Clown and het Clown; 3)the breeder pix were taken in a light box w/ the light source inches from the BP the pix u took and from your vantage point, the light source is dimmer and several feet above your head in the ceiling. then it looks like a white balance was used in the breeder pix (or other techniques). i'm all about natural light and/or crappy camera phone pix lol.

I agree with you mostly. When I first found the snake. I said please send me some photos of different angles because he looks really bright. She sent me a ton of the same super bright photos. I'm not upset all all there is nothing extra but she tried to hardest to lead me to believe there was before I paid him off. When I received him my heart sank and had the feeling like I had been duped. I have come to my sense and believe some of the blame is on myself. When I took those recent pictures I was on a step stool directly underneath my 100w daylight bulbs in the snake room. So she had to enhance the picture someway to make it so drastically different. Again....lesson learned.

Some marketing photos look too good to be true. (Filters? Crazy lighting?)
I recently ordered a fantastic looking Bamboo adult male, and he was literally the BEST looking bamboo morph I’d ever seen, maybe even the best-looking ball python of all time!!!
I had the seller email me a photo of him taking it out of its tub with crappy lighting and his phone camera.
The snake still looked awesome in crappy lighting, so I pulled the trigger.

Your clown looks pretty awesome to me.

I looked at the photos above not the ones directly under my bulbs but very similiar! Either way your right I have a beautiful snake and still many plans for him!
