    Help identify what morphs I have!

    Hey all,
    This is my first post on here but I've lurked for a bit. I have two 5 month old ball pythons that I can't get enough of! I believe both are morphs (that's what I was told). My buddy worked at a big breeder and got me them for a good price, so I couldn't be so particular. He wasn't 100% sure what they were; but told me what he thinks and now we've forgotten. He told me the female is a morph or 4 or 6 genes and the male is either a normal or 4 genes? I'd like to know as now I'm quite interested ball pythons and am possibly considering breeding them down the road. Love them very much, just wanna know what I have! Any help is appreciated

    My female:



    My male: (belly is white, except 1 inch of spots at tail end)

    Heard back from by buddy, he said the male is a lesser (I believe he is correct based on my research and the reply here). Not an expert at all but I'm not completely sure the female looks like a Mojave? Maybe she is! Thanks!

    the girl is a Pastave (2 genes = Pastel, Mojave) and the boy is a Butter/Lesser (same genes, different designer lines). they're clean examples. congrats.

    Re: Help identify what morphs I have!

    Thanks for all the replies! I think she’s a Mojave’s or Pastel Mojave but this patterned spot makes me maybe think otherwise? All pictures of Mojave’s online seem to look a little different? Anyone know what she could be if not just Mojave’s or pastel Mojave? Are spots like this usual for these morphs? She also seems a little different in colour than others I’ve seen online? I’m no expert at all so any input is valued! Thanks for the help!

    the split alien heads tell me it's Mojave and the coloration/blushing says Pastel. i think that spot is a small paradox.

    My thoughts, also (though I'm not even close to being an expert on genes/morphs). Either way, she's beautiful!

    Thanks for all the help! I think lesser and pastel Mojave seems to be correct!
