    Looks beautiful and healthy !!

    I bet in the wild they grow even slower then that. What you want to look at is the body condition. Looks well hydrated, well filled out. Isn't thin or worse, emaciated. Nice healthy appearance.

    As for morph, there are many "hidden" things that can be subtle or even unknown yet. Most likely what is considered a wild type "normal" , but a particularly pretty one. Always liked that swirly pattern.

    Gorgeous snake. Just keep feeding the right size food, neither power feed nor under feed. I like to grow mine slow and healthy (not underfeeding them of course).
