    It looks pretty normal to me. I don't see yellowbelly. As for het for something I really wouldn't have a clue unless you know what the pairing that it came from.

    Definitely not a yellow belly. As for being het for anything, there is no way to know unless you breed it. The problem is, what do you breed it to??

    Any normal that anyone gets from anywhere these days has the possibility of being het for anything because breeders unload their 50% and 66% possible hets as normals at shows and to pet stores because they usually can not sell them for any more than a normal.

    The railroad tracks could possibly be an indicator of het pied but many normals that are not het also have this. The only way to find out for certain would be to breed it to a pied and see if you get any pieds.

    You could also breed it to a 100% het pied but even in the slight chance that your snake IS actually het, you could still not get any pieds from that pairing. It might just be a wasted breeding.

    Breeding to a pied is a win win situation because if you get no pieds, chances are really good that your new snake is NOT het pied but at least every baby produced would be 100% het pied because you bred it to a visual pied.

    Normal till proven, but i do see Het Pied tracks. So i would get a het pied female or pied female and prove that out.

    Re: Is He Yellow Belly?

    I reread what I typed and realized I wasn't very clear at all when I said about him being het or something else. The guy I got him from had to get rid of his collection, and I know he didn't have normals. So it has to be either het or something else. Het what I'm not sure but definitely not a normal. Thanks for the replies!

    Re: Is He Yellow Belly?

    Even if he's a het, he's still a normal.

    I'd say with the tracks, your best bet is to put him with a pied female, but even regular normals can have the tracks.
