I think a lot of it is the lighting in the pic. If you look very closely, you can pick out the head fade and the blushing it should have. Granted, the body color is dark, but it is also an older snake. It looks like it has good Enchi banding, and has very few to no spots, which is another big thing for an enchi. Depending on sex and price, it's a good solid animal.
