    Whatever morph that may or may not be, that is one BEAUTIFUL snake !!! Absolutely love it. Gorgeous contrast, color and pattern.

    I would be more concerned about health and such...make sure you quarantine. Price is absolutely right, even for a pretty and established "normal" female. Go see her in person, make sure she is healthy and looks as well as in the picture.

    Yeah the price isn't too high and that is one heck of a beautiful animal. But make sure that it's a female by either popping or probing it, that is if you can do it. Could be a vanilla, or a very good looking normal, depends on if you feel it's worth the money or not.

    I don't know enough about Vanillas to judge but here is a pic of one:

    They are described as having light colors and a faded head!

    yea it could very well be a vanilla. Looks real light. How big is the snake would you say? The price throws me off thow. He is claiming its a vanilla female, yet females go for around 300 350. Its odd I would theroughly inspect that snake before considering it.

    Could be a Vanilla or possibly as Super.
    Ask for better pictures and of course you need a really good head shot.
