why cant i see the difference?

[rabernet]

i guess im wondering why they are worth more if you have to look so closely to see a difference. is it just for breading to get to a noticeable difference? cause if so i cant see paying for something that is only apparent in its genome if its just a pet...

It's likely that one wouldn't buy a subtle morph to keep as just a pet. Yellow bellies look like normals to those who are new to ball pythons, but bred together, they produce an ivory. There are very subtle examples of YB's and then there are extreme examples.

I personally love the subtle morphs, but I also love a beautiful normal!
