2nd, in the pictures you'll see some interesting markings. First if you look at the tail picture, you'll see black going full around the tail and a black mark around his tail as well...is this normal, or could it be a marker of some sort? Some people have expressed that it might be a good dinker project for me to breed him (which I'm heavily considering) because the pet shop where i bought him, had stated that this clutch was a het for something, but he didn't know what. Can anyone tell by the photos?

Thanks for checking him out and for any answers you can provide...







I have had snakes go for a long time between defacating, even when eating regularly. So I would not say that what you described is abnormal. As far as the markings making it a pos Het? I couldn't tell you though. Looks like a really nice normal to me. You'd definitely have to prove it out...but if you don't know what it is pos Het for, it would be tough.
