Here's my "normal black back" (paid $35)
That being said, I really like the normal black backs. Genetic or not, you have a very pretty snake there. Congrats on the new addition and good luck with the dinker project in the future.

Re: New Strange Ball Python
I could sell you a turd dressed up in Armani, but in the end is still just a turd.
The thing is man, if you paid 145 dollars for him and you think it was worth it, then you got a good deal. But with the years of experience people on this forum have, and countless posts, a lot of us know what were talking about.
Reduced pattern and Black Backs are not known morphs. Raise him up and see what happens though, HEY, you never know. But DO NOT be disappointed if you don't hatch out the next best thing.
Best of luck to you

Re: New Strange Ball Python
I have seen a few people with genetic black backs unless I'm mistaken. John Stranahan aka Jasballs, has some he works with that he produces black back albinos with. As for reduce patterns being known morphs what about Tigers? I think Casey Lasik works with those.
Are those still unproven projects?

Some blackbacks are genetic. cv exotics and jasballpythons are working with genetic blackback albinos. which make full white backs on the albinos. they are codoms I believe. Nice snake you wont know anything until you breed it.

Re: New Strange Ball Python
Nice looking normal - AND, can you please not reply to every post with the same reply? You only need to say it one time, you wouldn't pay $145 for a normal, mom and dad were reduced and black back - got it!
I've got a couple of normals that look exactly like him!

Re: New Strange Ball Python
That's first one's ugly, Robin. You should send it over here. 
When I hear the words, "unproven genetics" I think captive hatch. And this IS the season..
But like has been said. If you thought the price was fair and you like the snake, then you got a good deal.
