    The Marking Alphabet!

    Hey guys!

    I've got an interesting project for everyone. Every ball python has unique, distinct markings that set it apart from all others.

    Some markings can stand out as odd or intriguing and I've noticed one on one of my ball pythons: The letter "A"



    I was wondering if everyone could help me finish the alphabet and I will compile them all at the end in to one big picture!

    We don't have to go in order, just post up a letter you find! Some might be easier than others! This should be fun
    1.0 OD YB Spider
    1.0 Orange Dream Yellowbelly
    0.1 Pastel
    0.1 Pastel Calico
    0.1 Pastel Enchi Yellowbelly

    Even though my boy has a distinct Y, I named him Sam. Lol

    This seems to be a very interesting thread, and if I weren't procrastinating from studying for finals, I would go look at all my snakes for letters. Another thing, if we get a full list of letters we could totally use them to make those collage pictures with different objects being used for letters. We can corner the market on Ball Python alphabet pictures! It'll be a gold mine!
    I've got quite a few...

    it has been done with butterfly wings, even with multiple instances of each letter and number. so, MisterKytes nice pewter also has an "8". it would be cool to get it done. some random butterfly wing alphabet pics i found:
    The Big Bang almost certainly (beyond reasonable doubt) happened 13.7 billion years ago. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Evolution is a fact, evolutionary theory explains why it happens and provides four different lines of evidence that coalesce to show that evolution is a fact. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    One third of the global economy relies on technology that is based on quantum mechanics, especially quantum electrodynamics (electron-photon or electron-electron interactions). If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Time Dilation is real, it is so real that all clocks if they are precise enough can measure it, and GPS could not possibly work without it.
    If you disagree, send me a PM.

    The 4 philosophically most important aspects of modern science are: Evolutionary theory, Cosmology, Quantum mechanics, and Einsteins theory of general relativity. Understand these to get a grip of reality.

    my favorite music video is online again, its really nice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oABEGc8Dus0
