Vanilla or fire have belly marks?

[angllady2]

Ok, so here's the deal.

I went to a small local reptile shop today. They have quite a few nice snakes and stuff there. While I am window shopping, I come across a tank of adult and sub-adult normal male ball pythons.

In among the various normals is one male who positively glows! Light, bright, clean colors and very faded head with a big bright spot in the center, along with a bit of almost an arrowhead shape? I ask to see him. He's a good size snake, probably 400 grams+. And he's just beautiful. He's not just a "light normal" color, he's got a lot of cream and yellow in him. But, his belly isn't clean like I'd expect. In fact, although his belly is nice and white, he's got a dark pattern running down the very center of his belly, almost exclusively in his wide belly scales.

Now, I know it's probably wishful thinking that he's anything but an exceptional normal, but I was curious. Does anyone out there have a fire or vanilla { the two morphs he most closely resembles } with belly markings?

Pretty sure naked bellies are a must have fire trait. I know all the ones Ive seen are white.
Very least it could be a nice dinker .

Fire belly shot

May be normal, but abnormal enough to not just be normal. Y'know? Worth working with, I'd say.

OR it could be a total normal, without pictures your just guessing, lol

Well, by the description... Even nice looking normals will pass that on. It's not just the morphs that are genetic.
