    Question Normal or Mystic?

    Hey everyone. I have a normal and a mystic and for the life of me I can not spot any noticable differences. So, I've created a little challenge. I will post a picture of both my normal (het pied) and mystic and you please try to identify which is which and describe the clues you used to tell. Ready?

    Re: Normal or Mystic?

    I'm new to morphs, but as I googled those two, I think that snake A is a normal and snake B is a mystic. But as I said, do not take my words like im pro, I just joined the challenge for fun

    A Normal

    B Mystic

    When you look at enough mystic and normal you will know the difference (pattern, coloration)

    A = is normal and B = is mystic,
    both have some interesting bellies but the mystic will have more of a unique pattern... just like phantom a lil, mystic will have a more unique situation on them "alien heads", but with age you can see the more obvious differences than that of a normal.. Good challenge tho...deff had What’s next coral glow vs banana or butter vs lesser lol...

    Agree, B is the mystic. To me a mystic looks like a mojave pattern and normal colors.

    Yeah, you are all right. Still think it'll be tough to tell the babies apart from his clutches down the line. Any tips? Be specific if you can, I'm pretty new to the less obvious morphs.

    Snake 2 is the mystic, I based this on the strange coloration. Classic ball pythons are more black and goldish brown. Your second does not look classic colored to me.
