    Look Alikes

    After seeing a thread where there was some confusion about if a snake was a Lesser of a Mojave. I figured I'd throw a couple of morphs that look like each other and do some side by side shot so let folks see the side by side similarities and differences

    First up is the pair in question a mojo on the right and a lesser on the left


    Next up is one that gets confused for normals. or I should say normals get confused for it. Hypo on the right and normal on the left.


    Next is a little more subtle one Spotnose on the right normal on the left


    Now for one that should be obvious but some folk have trouble with it Cinni on the right and a normal on the left


    Here's one that people have a hard time seeing for some reason, enchi on the bottom normal on top


    Here are a couple of supers Super Mojo on the left ivory on the right


    See the difference in the eyes (double tongue shot for those that like that)


    Even the heads have different colors



    Hope that helps once some of the other stuff gets a few more sheds I'll get some more of this like YB and spark and fire etc.

    Awesome post! Can you maybe point out the differences between a normal and a spotnose? I'm looking at the picture but I'm not having much of a connect. Also, didn't realize super mojos looked so yellow-tinged!

    Some more that I'd like to see side x sides of....

    Mystic x Mojave
    Special x Normal
    Spark x Normal
    Specter x Normal

    I'm sure they may be scattered out there somewhere, but one central location for this would be great!

    Great info! Don't forget pastel x normal. People confuse that one a lot as well.

    A lot of these definitely were hard for me in the beginning! Now I can spot them pretty well, but I wish I had something like this from the get go!

    People should add more comparison shots, this can be a helpful thread for many!

    That double tongue was awesome! It is funny sometimes to think that hypos get confused for normals. They are SO incredibly different!

    This is a great post! Love the double tongue shot pic too!! And your last few pics of the super mojo and ivory clearly show something that ive always seemed to notice.....that many ivories are sooo much "cleaner" than super mojos, which i always would have thought should be the other way around
