    Morph or just reduced pattern?



    I attached some pictures of this abnormal looking normal that I got out of my first clutch. I bred a Lemon Pastel with a Normal female, I got 3 pastels, 3 normals, and this special looking girl. One of the pictures is her next to one of her normal siblings. This is my first time breeding and I was wondering if I got lucky out of the deal. Maybe a hypo? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
    -Kirstin.

    She does look kinda hypo and has a real nice reduced pattern. I'd keep her and pair her with the father in a few years.

    There's no way that that's a 'normal'.
    Looks like you lucked out and got a hypo in that clutch, which makes all the rest of the babies 66% het hypo

    I think a lot of times people sell off 'normal 'possible hets as just plain normals just to move them, or sell codom possible hets as just the codom. There are probably thousands of random 'hets' floating around in the trade that are sitting in peoples collections as 'normals'
    Ex. Pastel 50% het hypo sold as just a pastel.
    Talk about some luck that they both were het hypo.

    Im almost positive thats a hypo. The first shot its kinda hard to tell but the second shot of her next to a normal really shows it well. My guess would be orange ghost since its the most common and bc she looks kinda orangey in the pics. Definetly hold her back and pair her with the sire in a few years. Really nice snake, congrats!

    I think that theres something with hypos that when they shed their sheds are clear or something? Someone with more experience here needs to chime in though bc idk what it is for sure exactly...
