    Morph ID?

    I am about to adopt a gorgeous little ball python.
    It is listed as a “SpinnerBlast” (spider pinstripe pastel) but it is immediately obvious that there is no spider gene present.
    Definitely pastel, definitely pinstripe, 3rd gene looks Enchi to me. It is difficult for me to be sure of the Enchi gene in some multi-gened beeps.
    Thoughts from experts?

    These are just internet photos, I’m going to see him in person tomorrow or this weekend. I will adopt him and quarantine and take more photos soon.

    Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

    The lemonblasts I examined on the web looked a little different. This one more closely resembles the lemonblast enchi photos out there.

    Looks like a lemonblast to me! A particularly pretty one, too.

    The Enchi Lemonblasts have less of that darker color on top, its more "broken up and pixelated" too. At least the ones I've seen

    Either way, that is a gorgeous snake and a worthy addition to a collection. Everyone should have some pinstripe in the collection

    0.1 Super Emperor Pinstripe Ball Python "Sunny"
    0.1 Pastel Orange Dream Desert Ghost Ball Python "Luna"
    0.1 Pastel Desert Ghost Ball Python "Arjanam"
    0.1 Lemonblast Enchi Desert Ghost Ball Python "Aurora"
    0.1 Pastel Enchi Desert Ghost Ball Python "Venus"
    1.0 Pastel Butter Enchi Desert Ghost Ball Python "Sirius"
    1.0 Crested Gecko ( Rhacodactylus ciliatus) "Smeagol"

    WOw, very difficult to tell. I just looked at several dozen photos of lemonblasts and several dozen photos of Enchi Lemonblasts. The funny thing about this particular snake, is that it looks far more like an Enchi Lemonblast pattern and color compared to all the lemonblasts out there, but yet it looks more like a regular lemonblast compared to all the Enchi lemonblasts out there! Its appearance is somewhere in the middle!

    The best I can tell until I get a closer look at him, is that he is a lemon blast with a very unique "enchi" look. Yet he is not QUITE as orangey and reduced as most of the Enchi lemonblasts.

    I will know for sure, when I pick him up.

    nevermind, I got way too over-excited to adopt this beautiful snake for only $40!!! I really don't need a pastel pinstripe in my collection. I am building a breeding collection, and I am heeding advice of the veterans to focus on my longterm plans and projects and don't get distracted by "deals". I am such an addict! It is such a beautiful lemon blast! Sigh, I need to learn to control myself when I am "window shopping". lol

    Anyway, I agree with everyone after much study, it is a simple pastel pinstripe. Gorgeous nonetheless.
