    Please help me identify this little bp!

    Hello!! I'm a new member here. And I'm in need of help!

    So I recently went to the pa oaks super expo and got my self this little female bp. When I agreed to purchase here the man behind the table instantly wiped off the label on the box and I forgot what morph she was, and I didn't get the chance to ask him because he immediately went to help some other people.

    So I'd like to know what Morph she is? I know I saw the box said something something HET, I think it's a pastel yellow belly het maybe, but I'm going of pictures on google and I'd rather find out from someone with more experience. Please let me know what you think.

    Also I plan on breeding her in the years to come, not to make a quick buck or anything but just because I want a bunch of baby bps for myself, so I will be going to another expo in October and I would like to know what morph male I should pair with her to get the most variation out of the clutch. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

    ps I've had several bps in the past some from expos, some adoptions, but I have never attempted to breed, I know I have no experience but I do have plenty of time to learn!

    Well the pictures are broken for me so I can't help with whatever visual morphs she has but if she is "het" something then that means she has a recessive gene in her that doesn't show on her outwardly. Like albino is a recessive morph so that means you will need two snakes with the albino gene to produce an albino. If the snakes parents or one of its parents were albino but it was not visually albino then that means it's het, and still carries the gene. You can breed a het albino to an albino and then get albino babies. There are many other genes that are recessive, I just uses albino as an example. So if she is het something the only way you could tell us by asking the breeder, I hope I explained that in a way that made sense XD

    If you ever plan on breeding that animal, save yourself a lot of grief and contact the breeder to find out exactly what you bought. As has been said before something sold as het is carrying a recessive gene that is only visible in its homozygous form. It is also important to know if it is 100% het or 66% possible het.
