My little pinstripe
Hello everyone,
Hope you are all doing well. I bought a new baby pinstripe from a breeder at Tinley Park Illinois NARBC show. She stood out to me over her other siblings so when I picked her up the breeder told me he noticed people look at her first. She is a little darker and her pinstripe seemed a tad different as well. Not real obvious, but enough for me to catch it and I'm not a professional. I was going to pass on buying her cuz she was still on live food and I didn't want to deal with it. But with further talking to the breeder about transitioning her from live to frozen I decided I wanted her. I offered her a frozen thawed last weekend and she took it no problem. She is such an awesome snake, has a great personality. I talked to the breeder today and told him about her eating and he was happy to hear. Also, talked to him about her coloring and stuff. He did mention she did stand out against her siblings, he thinks she will get more gold as she ages, but he is curious to see how she will look as she ages. Am I just inexperienced? Or do you guys think she may look slightly different than other pins? I will add a few pics. I was just curious and figured I would have more experienced people take a peek.

No tricks there, she's a real treat! I'm not knowledgeable about morphs/BP genetics (can't answer your question), but IMO she's very attractive. Nice choice!

Thanks, she is just an awesome girl. The pictures make her look so big. She is actually witty bitty right now. Hatched out in August.

Thank you. I thought she looked cool in the orange skull, plus I got her in October. So Halloween theme was appropriate for her.

Re: My little pinstripe
She's a pretty baby, and will undoubtedly grow up to be an awesome adult!

What a cutie!
She not only looks pretty dark, but has practically no side pattern that I can see. There might be some subtle morph floating around in that breeders lines that he is unaware of or it could just be a one off. I'm not even sure off the top of my head what morph it could be. Many of the darkening genes would be making the pinstripes larger and more wobbly looking. Woma tends to drastically reduce side pattern in Pinstripes, but not to that degree, and I don't think it causes darkening. Most of the other things that reduce pattern would lighten, rather than darken her. If it's an official second morph, I don't think it's a very common one. Spider causes a lot of pattern reduction in Pinstripes but they tend to have white up the sides a decent way and some thin stripes going across the dorsal, not just parallel to it, along with badly broken up pinstripes.
Maybe someone else might have a guess, but as far as I can tell it's not something common.

Re: My little pinstripe
I was waiting for you to chime in. You have helped me incredibly in the past. He said he bred pinstripe to pinstripe. I noticed how weird she looked, then he said many people looked at her but didn't pick her up. I was looking for a pinstripe specifically when I went to the expo. When I saw her I thought she was cool. When I got home and saw other pins photos I noticed she looked more different than I thought. Would you like to see photos of her siblings? They are in a big pile but you can tell the difference. Not sure if that would help or not.
