Lucy's

My Fire BEL has the tiniest yellow spot on the tail and nothing else, a couple of Mike Wilbanks are scale perfect with NO yellow on them. There have been MANY poor examples of BELs. If you have also seen a Fire BEL and Lesser BEL together then you will know what white really is!!!

If you say that there have been many examples of bad BELs, I can just as safely say that there have only been a few good examples of super fire's...lol...

You're right...Lesser BEL would be whiter

[elevatethis]

What about Ralph's Lesser Pied? That was all white I believe???

Technically speaking, you're probably right...that's the one and only 100% white snake ever produced...eyes, pattern (or lack thereof), everything...

They are all nice

I prefer the Black Eyed Lucy, love the yellow blotching, the more the better!

As for the whitest, in Ralph words ''Ha!!...........I'm lovin' it!!...........this little guy has had his first meal and shed.....and I will say this..........and I should know...........the white snake from this clutch is 100% hands down the "WHITEST" absolute ZERO patterned ball python on this planet..........it is a "White Piebald"

On the good/ bad example then it depends who's breeding you look at. Some breeders are constantly producing bad examples and others constantly producing good. Clearly showing there is more to this morph and the breeding involved than people care to look at.


On the Lesser BEL then I suggest Optrex or a good opthalmpologist

Gorgeous snakes in this thread! I wouldn't kick any of them out of my tubs..........but if i had to choose, with a gun to my head

it's gotta be the BEL! I'd sell m left arm for one!

If Kara's around please post a pic of that smokin adult ivory of your's.

The black eyed lucy and ivory are neck and neck for second place, bluey running away with the trophy.

We should all try for a white piebald in the future.

How many of you have actually seen a Black-eyed leucy or super fire in person before?

They have yellow splotches on them...funny how they never show up in the photographs online

Lesser x lesser BEL hands down.....that's the only actual white snake on the list...

Well, I've seen several lesser X lesser and a couple black-eyed, and the ONLY totally stark white snake of that group was a black-eyed leucy. That's why I spent quite a bit more to get a FIRE pair rather than lessers. Plus the blue eyes look a little goofy to me.
