    Welcome to the site!

    A dinker is a ball python that has a unique feature or look to it that you hope to prove genetic by breeding.

    It's basically a snake that you think may be a morph but it isn't proven either way yet.

    For instance (and correct me if I'm wrong) but Yellowbelly used to be thought if as a dinker. Proved to be an actual morph though :p

    Serp Merch pointed it out exactly. It's just an odd looking or a unique looking that could possibly turn out to be a morph, but as it stands it's not.
