Normal x Mojave & the result

[Shaksy_Green]

Hi everybody,
I'm a newcomer in BP breeding (from Russia). This is my only 2-nd season. And look what I've got from my Normal female & Mojave male



Does anybody have any idea what can this be?
I've got one baby from Mojave previous season, but there was no yellow & brown it that hatchling...
Or this is just a weird normal? If so, can you please show me pics of your normals who were strange when hatched out?

And the other question is about such occasions as on next photo.
Maybe somebody has any idea why can this happen?

Hi,

The first snake will be easier to identify after it's first shed I think.

As for the second one were the temps in the incubator stable all the way through?

Like Derek said, shedding will help out with the first one. The first one looks like it might be a Hypo, but that coloration could darken up after the first shed or two and look more like a normal.

As for the deformity, it some times happens. I had one from a clutch of 6 that was all deformed, but couldn't find any temperature spikes or anything to explain it. It's unfortunate, but does happen.

Derek, finally this odd hatchling shed, and I can show the result. As to temperatures, they weren't stable all the time, cause I've opened it quite often to check the clutch & to take off some new leopard gecko hatchlings. But it didn't take too much time.

Anyway I'll be more careful with the temperatures and humidity next time. Thank you for advice.

Chris, thank you for the information. And please, take a look at this odd baby after shed & his mom.
There is a very small chance that she's het Hypo. She's about 7-9 years now, so she was born in 2007-2009, while first ever ball pythons (normals) appeared in Russia in 2010-2011. Hets were at a good price, and spiders and pastels in those years were in a big value. And this female was presented to a friend of mine in 2011-2012 as a wild type.
Anyway... Here are the pictures

I don't have anything helpful to add. I'm just popping in to say that I love that baby. Very cute, and nice markings

Maybe? That baby is 100% hypo! Congrats.

[Shaksy_Green]

I wanna thank everybody for opinion & help... And ask to repeat again))) Now with all three hatchlings.
Today I've got another one who looks like a very-very dark normal. So I did my best to show in on photoes below







From the very beginning I supposed him (or her??) to be Mojave, but for now on I'm no so sure. What can you say?

And normally looking normal



All together
