Cinnamons vs. Normals

[Navy]

The reason I have trouble is because I always passed off cinnies as a minor morph, but as I was looking at what these guys can do, I was sadly mistaken.

Don't worry. I used to think Cinnies looked like normals too. But the longer you spend looking at different morphs and the sometimes subtle characteristics that distinguish them, the less subtle those characteristics will become. Over time you will be able to pick out small things that distinguish a morph with ease. It just takes a little practice. Now I look at a Cinnie and can easily see the difference. They look nothing alike! But to the untrained eye, they can look very similar. No worries. The more you see the easier it will get.

Heres mine. Look at the belly on her. She has these little white wiggles. Red blushing makes a nice cinny. Ive also read that cinnamons almost always have a dorsal line of spots or a stripe or something like that

Cinnnamons alien heads have alot of donuts and sometimes their alien heads connect and squiggle together. Alot of times they either have dorsal stiping or no striping and just blushed backs. Also the coloration is way different. Cinnamons are generally darker, and more reddish brown than normals.

As far as breeding i say go for it. Spiders wobble but TONS of people still breed them. Ive talked with a local breeder whose hatched out alot of supers and he said that kinking is very possible and hes hatched out kinked supers before. But he said it shouldnt deter people from breeding them. He showed me one he had that he said was kinked. It took me a few seconds to find it bc it wasnt very obvious at all. The snake still lives a normal healthy life. I wouldnt let that deter you from breeding them.

My biggest indicator is the outlining of their patterns. in every one of the cinny pictures provided you can see the distinct BLACK outlining of all bubbles, squiggles, alien heads, and such on their sides. It's like in the children coloring pages, you always color withink the black lines lol just saying. Anyhoo yeah they're more brown or red, but my biggest indicator is definitely the black outlines.

Unless they are black back cinnies, which is what I produce.

Don't feel bad hon,

There actually ARE a lot of cinny's out there that at first glance can be mistaken for a normal. The ones pictured here are really great examples, and are easy to spot. Have you ever look at the Hunter's Guide ?

This is a huge help, and you can see there are some cinnamons that do look a lot like a normal at first.
