    Possible Enchi? What do you think?

    Initially while picking out a couple CH dinkers, after looking at the stomach I grabbed this one because of the high yellow color and the spot on the head.

    Now that I have it home, I am wondering if this is Enchi. Sorry for the poor lighting and photo quality, I will eventually take some nice pictures to show the color. But the pattern is still obvious even with the poor quality pictures.

    What do you all think?

    That looks very much like an Enchi to me, but I am still relatively new to morphs.

    Thanks Igby, I am relatively new to morphs as well.

    Anyone else with an 'eye' for the enchi morph?

    Its pretty high yellow, but I'd be happy to get some better pictures if need be. Thanks, Mark

    Thanks Freakie_frog

    I wasnt sure and really picked it out for the high yellow and head spot anyway, but figured its good to check even though it began to look enchi when comparing it to pics. But thats what you vets are for!

    I will have to break out the better camera to capture the color anyway. It would be nice if the high yellow and pattern (no midstripe until the end of tail and slightly reduced) proves.

    Thanks Shescountry,

    I am still very new to BP's and need to stop picking through bush babies. Some nice normals never hurt

    Not an enchi, some normals have that goldish/yellowish color shown in your last pic. Normals really vary alot

    Re: Possible Enchi? What do you think?

    Thanks iCandi,

    is it color that makes an enchi? Or a combination of factors? Is there a dead give away for an enchi?

    I am gradually learning to spot morphs, might as well begin to learn how to spot the enchi.
