Pied or Leopard Pied?

[BigIan]

I just won this guy at auction and for what I paid I'm happy if it's just a normal pied. The parents were a leopard pied x pastel yellowbelly het pied.

It just doesn't look like a regular pied ball python, maybe it's a leopard YB pied?

Im im curious to hear what you guys think...

I don't see leopard in that guy. Leopard pieds have a very distinct look to them.

I'm not sure on the YB, Justin would be the one to chime in there, since he was one of the first to breed them.

Not light enough to be a pastel pied.

But he does have that really wild pattern thing going on. Just gold blotches with stripes. Odd for being just a pied.

Any way you look at it, it's a fantastic animal anyone who likes pieds would be proud to own.
