FINALLY! Good pics! Give opinions please! DUW!

[Foschi Exotic Serpents]

I find it odd that not a single person on here (not even the people who know nothing about morphs) seems to want to give an opinion on these pictures..

Ok the back story is this. My female Thunder is an ICH. That means i picked her out of a huge tub of babies hatched from an imported female. I personally have never seen a 7 year old "normal" with the patterns & color that mine has. I do not know if she is a yellow belly though.. I will be breeding her to a YB this year to find out..

The thing is. Most of the veteran breeders who have looked at her pictures say no flames, no YB... But this is not always true. Especially with the WC ones. The trait of having flames has gotten better over time with captive breeding..

YB are known to have a clear to ivory belly. Parallel dashed or speckled markings that run along the sides of the belly scales. They are known to have a pixelated look to the side scales. Much like a granite. Only with yellow scales. They are also known to have a burgandy head with a lighter area in the center of the head. Many have jet black markings mixed with burgandy markings or spots. Many are more banded.. They have many differnt variations and have improved greatly with selective breeding..

This season i plan to breed her to a proven YB to see if se is in fact a YB. If not.. Im at a loss because as i said.. If you look at the close up of her scales and know that her pattern and color combinations runs the entire length of her body.. What in the world could she be? She does seem to have passed her somewhat banded pattern on to my female pastel offspring i held back. Which is another mystery in itself. They hatched neon yellow. Now the female is black banded, no blushing, little white spots outlined in yellow here n there on her sides, and she is solid orange. Just have to wait to see what she looks like in a couple years..

But even if no one wants to give an opinion on the possibility of Thunder being YB. I hope you at least enjoied the pictures i posted.
