Is Osiris a normal or a dinker?

[yayafelicia]

I have a fully grown male that was given to me. He looks very different from my other normal ball pythons. Could he be a dinker? Comments and advice are welcome.

A dinker isn't a specific morph. It's really any "normal" that you are going to try and prove carries a gene other than normal. He looks like a very nice normal, and I like that his spots are limited to his sides, but anything can be a dinker! Won't know until you breed him

Should he be bred with another normal? I am going to try breeding this year for the first time.

Most people try to breed to an animal that is similar in appearance to whatever they are thinking is a dinker.

A dinker is a normal (until proven otherwise) that may have potential.

Do I see potential here? No, I see a normal.

Should you breed your normal male to another normal? That is up to you, ask yourself if you can afford the extra enclosures, extra food for an extended amount of time before the hatchling sell (if they do), and if they do sell you will have more money tied up in food and supply than what the animals are worth.
