    Little insight for my BP's

    I just bought two 100% het albino BP's. They were sold to me as norms(plus het). But after comparing mine to a few of my friends normals. Mine seem to have different colors and different pattern design. So I am posting to ask yall, what is your opinion?

    Sometime hets look different. But normal Ball Pythins are highly variable in color and pattern. I would say that they are for sure normals and possibly Het but only breeding can prove that.

    Re: Little insight for my BP's

    Yeah I thought so to. Thought I would just ask for someone else's opinion. They are my first set of snakes, ever. Been an awesome pet so far. I wish I would have gotten a BP a long time ago.

    Het Albino.

    What made you think they were het piebald?

    Het pieds tend to have intricate patterns like that. Certainly within the range of normal and even if they had the het pied bellies to match you couldn't count on it without breeding to see what they produce.

    Ohh well the breeder told me het albino, he could even track the lineage of his male albino to Ozzy Boids. The female he could only track back to a rescue. Either way het for albino or pied, they are beautiful snakes in my opinion. I appreciate your feedback though. I wont be breeding them for atleast a year, so no way of finding out before then.
