    Please help me identify these morphs.

    Hi,
    My name is Aaron. I'm new to this forum. I've been raising ball pythons for a few years now, but I recently had a clutch hatch and I'm having some trouble identifying what morphs I've got.

    The pairing was a Pastel Lesser female x Pastel Spider Enchi GHI male

    There are seven babies. Here are a couple pictures of each of them. I've labeled them with what I think they are, but I would be grateful for any input on what you guys think.

    pastel lesser


    pastel lesser enchi


    super pastel enchi lesser


    super pastel lesser enchi GHI


    lesser spider maybe GHI?


    super pastel lesser spider


    I would really appreciate your expertise on what you think these morphs are. Thanks so much for your time!

    -pastel lesser
    -pastel lesser
    -pastel lesser poss GHI (I don't think this one has enchi because they eye striping is pretty thin)
    -pastel enchi lesser
    -super pastel lesser enchi GHI
    -lesser spider
    -lesser pastel spider (Queen Bee) (I don't think it's super pastel because the blushing isn't very strong on the dorsal)

    I'm not seeing strong indication of GHI on any but the 5th, but I'm not an expert with GHI so someone else might be able to ID it in others better.

    Seems odd to hit 7/7 lesser but I can't see how a single one of them wouldn't have it with the colors they have, and the pattern in the first 4. 5th the pattern might be doing that from GHI.

    Thank you for your input. That’s really helpful. I hadn’t thought about that third one having GHI and I didn’t know that the enchis had thicker eye stripes. Do you think the 4th one could have GHI as well cause it just looks like there’s something more going on there with that one?

    It's possible, but I think enchi/lesser is responsible for how whacky the pattern is on that one. The thing making me skeptical about GHI in many of them is that GHI should darken up the darker and medium parts of pattern to give coffee and hazelnut types of shades and it should also dirty up the side pattern to have a wash of dark speckles instead of or around the "eyes" of alien heads or keyholes. That is always the case though, so maybe!
