What are your thoughts? Pic Heavy

So I thought this guy looked really cool and a little BEL complex to me but I wanted to see what all yall thought about him.

I'm not pointing at anything in any of the pics, just trying to hold him still. Also his back ground is unknown I got him from a friend at a pet store where this guy was just dropped off.

Interesting stomach. Curious as to what it is

Honestly it looks normal with some serious het pied "markers" still just a pretty normal unless you can prove him out as something else. Ive seen tons of normals that look the same as him.

Definitly worth playing with id say. You got a Mojave or Lesser Female you can throw him to?

I do have a lesser girl, but I was planning on using my pastel lesser with her. I may put him to one of my pastel girls and see what happens.

I see a normal. Tummy marks look like "het pied markers" but mean nothing until you prove him out. Especially with out knowing the back ground.

Those tracks are there for a reason! I'd try something het pied. But until you breed it out its a gorgeous normal. On the other hand, If your gut says BEL complex wouldn't you want to try it on the lesser?

I agree with normal het pied. You have to keep in mind you got him from a pet store... many many breeders will sell their het pied males cheap to pet stores to resell as pets because they are really not worth much to try to sell in the breeder market. Most breeders will not even say anything and just sell het pieds and albino males as normals to pet stores. Quite frankly they are worth about the same as a normal male. He's pretty and I am not really a fan of male dinkers and wasting a breeder female unless you are 90% SURE you've got something going on.....but if you're gungho on breeding him I would put him to a 100% het pied girl personally. That's the gamble I would choose. If you get normals he didn't prove. If you get pieds he did. If you get lesser/mojo looking snakes that look like him with clear bellies you hold girls and breed them back to him. But I would go 100% het pied female route for him I wouldn't waste your time on a lesser and certainly not a pastel. Jmo. Good luck!

He does look that way to me, but I want to make BEL's so that's why I don't want to use my lesser on a maybe. I do have a het pied girl who if she gains a little more weight I will try him on.
