    Agreed doesn't look like a fire to me

    Re: Is this a Fire Ball??

    IMO it's a normal. If it IS a fire it is a fairly low quality one. I'd return him/her if you bought as a fire. Even if it is a fire, you could probably do better elsewhere and have less doubt.

    This...

    Was it purchased as a fire? Because if you just bought a random normal snake off of someone or from a store, then it's not a fire. If you purchased it from a reputable breeder as a fire, then that's what it should be.

    Also, there have been a lot of people "selling" BPs on craigslist who are just kids who bought the snake from a pet store or at an expo as a normal, saw pictures of fires, thought their light normal looked like one, and turned around and tried to say it was a fire when it was very obviously not one.

    Thanks All

    Thanks for all the responses. I will try to put up a belly shot tonight. Don’t think this is a yellow belly but sounds like it’s not a Fire either. Purchased as a normal just noticed the head markings, blushing and coloration might be Fire. Wishful thinking.

    Is it just me or are nice female Fires hared to come by?

    @R&DP That is a nice fire. Where did you get that?

    Re: Is this a Fire Ball??

    My bad. I was under the assumption that it was purchased as a fire and this thread was to confirm. I've been looking at a lot of fires lately and have seen some that look similar in coloration to this one that were marked as fire. I would agree that if it is a fire, it's a low quality one IMO due to coloration. But being that you purchased as a normal, I take back my original post and will say normal until proven otherwise.
