What to look for- fire

[Nagini88]

When looking or a fire, what are the signs? What should one look for?

The Fire Ball Python is a brightly colored, pale yellow snake. They have a kind of ghostly appearance, but the yellow is more intense. The Fire is a beautiful new Ball Python trait in its own right, the fact that it is the key to the patternless Leucistic is just a nice bonus.

The Fire Ball is the visible heterozygous condition of the Leucistic. When bred to normals the result will be Fires and nomals. When Fires are bred together you will get Fires and Leucistics. There is a real advantage with this Leucistic project because there are no "possible hets". It is a co-dominant trait, the "super fire" is a bright white ball python with no pattern and black eyes, the "Holy Grail" of the Ball Python world, the patternless, Black Eyed Leucistic.

The black eyed Leucistic is the homozygous condition of the Fire.

what about babies, does anyone have baby pics? I hear they're not as visible colorwise as babies and get lighter as they grow.
part of my reason is I am looking to get a new morph soon and do have enough for a fire I'm not sure if thats what i'll choose yet but I dont want to pick one that doesnt turn out to be a fire ><

You will be able to identify a Fire straight from the egg. The colour will be lighter than a normal hatchling and it should already show some signs of blushing. The heads of all our hatchlings have a distinctive 'Mickey Mouse' marking - a light, round mark with two smaller light marks above similar to the two Mickey Mouse ears. The belly is completely clean.
