    Need help IDing pet store BP






    Came into my workplace as a normal. I see a lot of BPs come into the store and I'm well aware of the variance in appearance within normals. I am almost 100% positive this guy isn't normal, and I picked him up today because of that. Face shape and color difference from every normal baby I've seen has me thinking he's somewhere within the 8-ball complex, but he doesn't look 100% like any of the examples of those morphs I've seen in pictures. Hoping something that's allelic, maybe just a really weird example of something existing in that complex.

    Can't tell if it's clear in the images but he has the slight puffier almost duck bill-y looking nose that I know is indicative of balls in the 8-ball complex. He also appears much darker and more orange than a typical normal, not to mention how weirdly faded out his head patterning is, it's a little more obvious in person than in pictures. Hoping he's 8-ball complex, I have a breeding size pewter fader female who would be awesome to pair him to when he's at weight.

    Any help much appreciated!

    It is an interesting looking snake. I can't ID it.

    I do see the duck-billing. Normally I don't see duck billing on an 8-ball complex outside of the Super form. If I was you: I would worry that using a breeder male with duck-billing in the Het form may create a more extreme version of the deformity in a Super...Just a thought.

    He's definitely not a normal, i cant seem to ID him but I guess the only way to know what he is would be to breed him to your female when he's ready.

    He's very beautiful, and that belly is crazy looking
