    (Noob alert) Help defining the proper tecnical name of my "basic" BP

    Title says it all..
    I see all morphs have different names depending on their traits i.e. "pinstripe" "lemonblast" etc.
    But how do i refer technically to my "basic" BP i just got? I suppose it has some terms to define its traits too, or am i mistaken?
    I'm trying to learn as much as possible on BP's so please excuse my ignorance on the matter and i hope you'll understand me, since i guess some of you must have been through my phase too

    with all the varietiy that is present in just normals, we also sometimes differenciate between "normal" and "pretty normal" and "light normal" and "dark normal" and "reduced pattern normal" and so on.

    i think you have a pretty normal if you see a ball python temple with a lot of wild BPs, he/she would have good chances to win the beauty contest. no special traits, just nice.
