Fancy Ball Python

[IllumiBunny]

Hey I am new here my name is Jessay. I have a fancy ball python named Syria she is 3 1/2 years old now and a little over 3 feet I am not sure how to post pictures on one of these but when I got her a couple years ago I noticed that she has random scales that are shaped like white diamonds going in a line down her back it's just one scale that is white then every few inches there is another one. The bigger she grows the more she seems to get some are now becoming double diamonds 2 scales that are next to each other that are white.

Anyways I am curious about these they look really cool when I tried to look up fancy ball pythons all that came up was morphs so I wasn't sure if maybe that is what she is a morph of some type. She has only bit me once a year and a half ago but other than that she's very calm I never have a problem feeding her she's not picky on whether it is live or dead as long as she gets to eat. Even while shedding which I do watch over her more carefully when her eyes are milky and she can't see.

But the main thing I am curious about is the white diamond shaped scales going down her back is this normal? or is she a type of morph? if so what do you think she might be a morph from? I am very curious to learn more about her she is my first snake I've ever owned and I do everything in my power to read up on anything I can to make sure she is cared for properly though I've had her since 2016 I am better at it now I know exactly what I am suppose to be doing and what not to do.

Hopefully someone can help me with this I will see if I can post the pictures up in my gallery and then you can go take a look at them yourself see what you think since I am unsure how to post them here.

Simplest way I've found is to download the free App called TapaTalk. It has a free one click photo upload option

I saw your pics of your Enchi ball python in your gallery.

My original Enchi breeder had the same whited out scaled on his body when I bought him, except they were near the tail.
(I'm too lazy at the moment to find the pictures). I asked the breeder what those white scales were and he said that they were a little paradox coloring which might be related to possibly being Het for Albino.

I did proof breed my Enchi to an Albino and he was not Het.

That is awesome and I do love how the bigger she grows the more she seems to get some of them are doubling up now in splotches when I got her she only had about 3 of them and after a couple of sheddings she seemed to get more so I am very curious as to how she will look when she is full grown and also how big she will get as well. That would honestly be awesome if she turned out to be het though.

And thank you about the avatar pic lol
