Possible spider?

I found an ad on craiglist for a bp for sale...it looks like a normal but I can't really tell.

Is that a Normal? Or a possible spider (I doubt it) but could be a reduced.

I emailed him for a pic of the actual snake. Hopefully he responds.

I can't really tell be to me it looks like a funky patterned normal. Someone more experienced should come along soon.

Looks like a normal, but good luck, make sure you post the full size picture here so we can all see how good our guesses were ;)

Looks normal to me

Nice looking normal.

I like how they blocked out their kid's eyes, like someone would recognize him and be like "That little SOB owes me money!".

Aww man, I was pretty excited here, but it is a normal. Has a pretty interesting pattern.

He e-mailed me back a bigger image:

It's still a very nice ball python. I wouldn't mind having it in my collection (especially if it was a female...)

A normal. Nice size on it too.

It's only $50 too :D

Why is he getting rid of the animal? I just don't like to see people profiting from an animal they don't want anymore because they got bored, then they try to turn around and sell the animal. I would offer to take the animal for free if they just "dont have time for it", not saying you should do that, do whatever you'd like, you can get a nice normal BP from a breeder for that much and know it's in good health and eating (granted you buy it from a reputable breeder). :gj:

How is $50 a profit?
Maybe the seller spent $100.

If you like the snake, buy it.

I think she was refering to people that buy snakes then get tired of them then want more then they paid for it.Or just wanting any money at all.

Not a spider and not at all reduced pattern.

Good idea. I hope the snake isn't injured or sick or anything like that.
