    Looks like a fire to me with a little granite thrown in.

    I have many snakes that have the granite look to them, it doesn't mean it is genetic though. There is a genetic Granite but I just want to let you know that just because your snake has speckles does not mean he is a genetic granite.

    so even if the father of his clutch has them its still not considered genetic ? was talking to the breeder but had to rush because my ride was waiting on me & got caught up looking at all the pied ball pythons he had lol

    It is a genetic trait if it can be monitored from parent to child at a predictable percentage. It does not mean it's a "Morph" is more the point. Minute variations in pattern are perfectly typical in any animal, us included.

    Here is what a fire granite (co-dom) AKA brimstone looks like.

    The genetic Granite is a co-dom gene. It also has a super. You could always breed him and figure it out that way.

    I would agree on the granite being there.
    As already said, no to see if its genetic or not.

    Children often look like their parents. Does that make it genetic? Yes it does. Does that make it a morph? probably not.
