    Old question.. Is it a yellow belly or something other than a normal??

    I know this has probably been asked here a thousand times but is this a yellow belly or something else? It was sold to me as a normal but from what I've read about yellow bellies it seems to have most of the characteristics of a yellow belly including the the spot on the head, the flames all up and down the sides, and while I know not all yellow bellies have actual yellow bellies this one has a yellow tint to his belly which is not particularly visible in the pics. Thanks everyone for your input.

    Thanks. Is that based on the belly pattern in particular?

    It's a normal. Yellowbellies also have a very unique belly pattern with "checkers" down the sides. Here is my YB het hypo for comparison.

    Here you can see his blushing and flames:



    Here you can see his flames and his headstamp:



    And here is a bad picture (quality wise) of the same male's belly. See how it's "checkered" on the sides?

    She is normal but a stunner. I love the flames as well as the pattern.

    Well dang it. Thought I had something more on my hands than "just a normal". Love him anyway!

    The pattern is really cool, but the belly is normal.

    Here's my YB belly

    I think my kids would be devastated if we parted with him. Besides I think we're gonna find him a girlfriend and see what happens.
