Sorry if this is in the wrong spot.
Did you mean to put that in "is this a morph?" because if so that is a normal ball python

Check for burns. It looks like it's being kept on a hot rock. Toss that in the garbage right away and get a heating pad. It looks a little thin to but nice pattern. How much and what area? Is it male or female? Is it going to be your only snake? Have you ever owned a ball python before?

Re: what do you think?
Look at the coloration near the end of the tail. It is possible that it could be a darker pastel. Our pastel Is lighter near his tail and darker at his head. But" has the :green" eyes. But... as lotsaballs said, check for Burns, check for.mites, and in my opinion, flip it on it's back and see what It does, it should correct itself to a upright position, if not, well don't buy! That's my two sense..

Thanks for the tips on what to look for. Thought it looked a lil thin myself. If I ever hear back from the seller it would be my third ball. I have a quarantine area ready in a separate room in the event that one of my girls is ever in need of it or if I were to happen to get another snake.

Agreed, a reduced patterned normal that is on the thin side. I would definitely check the belly for scale rot. I've looked at two CL bps and both had scale rot.
