My husband and I just started collecting Ball pythons. I love them and am fascinated by all the beautiful morphs but still after reading piles of threads find the YB to be outright confusing.
I read on nerd the belly must be clear white with speckling on the sides of the belly but the guide on next world exotics shows in its first example shot a snake with speckling all over the belly.
The flames seem fairly straight forward. The spot on the head is less straight forward does it need to be a concentrated circle or just faded in general when compared to a normals color.
This was the first snake we bought she was purchased as a normal but after learning a bit I think she may be a YB. I bought her because I thought the orange on her sides was pretty so I wont be devastated if she is not a possible morph.
her sides
Her head
Her belly
