    One of three we rehomed. I wasn't gonna. But their homes were deplorable. So....while I know what the owner said I'm just curious what others think. (And I didn't label the 3 40 gallooln tanks so...ai may have mixed some things up when I got them cleaned up and into the rack).
    Just curious to ask peeps that know more than me what she may be! Please and thanks in advance!

    Hmmm that's different
    Thats not what the previous owner called her. Interesting. So. How about the other two?

    How do you know that? I'm reading about genetics now and am totally lost. Not sure at this point if I'll be able to spot a normal.

    Genes I currently have.
    If it looks like a normal, it is a normal until proven otherwise.
    If the breeder knows then thats a different story.

    Mine:
    1-Lesser Het Albino
    2-Hypo (OG)
    3-Double Het VPI Axanthic/Albinohttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...785d9aaf0b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...55f5d16973.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6b83a3ad70.jpg

    They were labeled as
    Enchi
    Orange ghost
    Granite lesser
    From the guy that had them. I guess thats what he was told when he got them but I have no way of tracking that down.
    So was just curious as those arent genetics id read up on thus far.
    They are settling into nice clean tubs nicely vs the filthy tanks w old sheds and such they were in, so I feel better.

    I can definitely see the orange ghost and enchi being pics 2 and 3. Granite lesser is one I'm unfamiliar with, not saying its impossible, but I'm leaning more toward just lesser. Granite, if I remember correctly, should give it more dark speckling or freckling in the lighter areas.

    Not seeing Enchi in that one.
    Could be low quality but Im not seeing it.

    I could be wrong, but I'm leaning toward lower expression enchi just based on the lighter coloration, the minor blushing I'm seeing in the blacks, and the extra lightening towards the belly. A better pic that includes the head and a better profile of the pattern may clear it up one way or the other.

    That and I'm looking at it after the OP listed what they were told by the previous owner, which may bias me to see more than what's there.

    1. Need a better pic of the sides to determine Granite/HGW. I assumed the pattern was due to Pastel given the age/size of the snake and the lighting in the photo. I'd call it a Lesser + 1 gene.
    2. Orange Ghost
    3. Enchi (gold hue is a giveaway)

    I agree with Pit on this, that animal is not an Enchi. Just a nice looking WT.
