    Normal or Yellowbelly?

    This is one of our Big Fat Lady Snakes, and my husband is curious whether the markings on her belly mean she could be a Yellowbelly. We picked her up as a normal, but the previous owners may or may not have had any real idea what she was other than "a snake" and "not a boa". Opinions are appreciated.

    Here's my thread where my girl got identified as a yellowbelly! I don't know if it will help but you can kind of compare. I'll post a few more pics of her.

    Re: Normal or Yellowbelly?

    I don't have anymore belly shots unfortunately, but maybe it'll help. It looks more like a normal to me though. Their markings just don't look the same.

    Re: Normal or Yellowbelly?

    YB's will have a clean belly as compared to a normal. That's a normal. Still a pretty snake.

    Yellowbelly is one of my main genes I focus on. I'd say a beautiful normal for sure.

    Thanks everyone! We don't have the eye for all these genes yet, but those YB belly shots are totally different from our girl... she's a lovely normal, for sure.
