I have been wrong before and will be wrong again.
I would say no to her being a YB. Side, belly, flames, and pixelation... they just do not match. Not maybe not a YB, but not at all.
Once you see a few they are quite easy to pick out.
Either way she is a gorgeous snake and if you are into her, then that is all that matters.

ICH, from my understanding, means the eggs were hatched in captivity but either they or a gravid mother was imported before the eggs were laid or hatched. So i guess anyway you look at it, it just means shes an import but she was hatched in the USA.
Im definately "into" her. She is the one snake i would never sell for any reason. She was a birthday gift to me in 03. I picked her out of all the others because as a baby she had a very yellow top-line, the yellow scales along her sides were orange as a baby and her red spot on her head was more pronounced..
This is why im hoping the orange of the pastel "bella" doesnt brown out like it usually does on pastels but eventually gets brighter like thunders did.
She may not be a YB but she defiantely has some traits shes passing along to her offspring. If shes not a YB what would be the best thing to breed her to? A YB still? A granite? A Calico or Banded maybe? I just dont know..
