Low Expression Yellow Belly? (Super pic heavy warning)
I have looked at dozens of pics of Yellow Bellies (many of them listed here) and I know that there are some that are considered "low expression" Yellow Bellies (aka, poorer quality). When I first picked up Sekhmet, she looked very different from all of my other Normals (including all of my hets), but I didn't think anything of it at the time. Well, she just shed this morning and when I went to look at her, it was like a completely different snake had come out of the shed skin. Her side flames and blushing have doubled and the yellows along her belly are a lot more noticeable. Her belly has a strip of super white in the middle, but the speckling on the sides isn't that pronounced. She didn't have much of a head marking before, but it is faintly visible now. I just don't know. I know that breeding her would be the only way to be 100% sure, but I'd rather not sink money into a Yellow Belly male if no one else thinks she could potentially be a low expression Yellow Belly. I'd rather ask you more expert people what you think and then plan accordingly. And before you ask, I got her from a guy that was more interested in Corns than BPs, so I traded two of my single gene Corns for her. He just thought she was a normal (and so did I before this recent shed). Thanks for taking the time to look and comment!











This was her before the shed:

She's a very pretty normal. No YB. The belly doesn't show a YB belly.

If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

Thanks everyone. It just was very shocking to me, because she doesn't even look like the same snake.

I do like her reduced pattern, would make interesting if she could pass that on into babies from a super pastel.
