Re: Possible Mojave???
Well, if you bought it as a Mojave, then yes, it is a Mojave. More than likely yours is just a flame-y normal though.
Looking forward to pics.

Here's my opinion on the whole "is my snake a morph?"
If you bought it as a normal...it's a normal. Pretty much guaranteed.
That doesn't make him any less good looking though.

Nahhh.... We can't guarantee that someone won't have a bad day and express their crankyness as a complaint against a commonly asked question....but as a general rule, we try to keep things pretty tolerant around here. 
And to answer your original question...yes, normals can have "flames"...some of them can be quite nice. Normals are so beautiful in their own right...it's easy to see why folks think they must be "morphs" because we often confuse the entire concept of beauty with rarity.

Yep There are soo many different appearances a normal can have. My adult has alot of blushing and flames. But you can tell if you have a Mojave, trust me. They look NOTHING like normals. Even if your normal has super nice flames, you put her next to a Mojo, you'll see the differences.
And I personally don't believe in the whole "If you paid for a normal you got a normal." Some places/people aren't educated about BP morphs, especially the more subtler ones that at first glance can appear normal, thus prices end up lower, and a nice snake finds its way into someones collection. But, that's just my two cents.
Besides, this is a helpful online community, here to offer opinions and help answer questions, no matter how many times we've heard them. I didn't get annoyed when I saw your post 
By the way, I'm not sure if this was initially what you were getting at, but Mojo's are a co-dom morph, therefore there aren't any "Possible Mojaves" or in other words Het Mojave. But I'm not certain if you were thinking of this or not, so ignore this last little bit if you weren't
