Could be het?

[Brixxart]

So, I bought a lovely little bp at a show two weeks ago, I didn't buy him from a breeder though, it was an educational table with someone whom decided they didn't like bp's that much after they bought two (They have a lot of colubrids)

So I bought one of the bp's and brought him home, but soon realized he most definetly wasn't a lesser clown as I was told he was. He's visibly just a lesser.

I bought him for $100 he's 211 grams (and 1'11")

Would you say he could potentially be a lesser het clown?

The owner said she was selling him for the same price she paid 6 months ago, and said she was selling as what she was told he was by the breeder, I see a couple lesser het clowns on morph market priced around $100... do you think he might possibly be a het clown?


I thought I'd add that I'm not a breeder and not necessarily going to be breeding (though I am looking into the idea for 5+ years down the road when I have a setup to breed successfully) so in the end it's not a huge deal, nor do I mind if he was mispriced or anything, he's for now a wonderful pet (incredibly skittish though, poor kid lol) I'm simply asking because I'm curious, either way, he's absolutely gorgeous.

There is only 1 way to find out and it is to breed it. Price tag or what someone tells you means nothing when it comes to hets unless you buy a het directly from a REPUTABLE breeder.

Thought so, just thought I'd check in to see if there were any tricks oh well. Thank you!

Yeah there is no way to know for sure without breeding and even then it could take more than one clutch to prove out.
