    Help needed to identify 6 hatchlings

    Hello everyone I am hoping some of you would help me identify 6 royal python hatchlings? I have an idea what they are but I am just not confident so hopefully some 1 could help, it would be appreciated!
    The pairing was a male fire lesser spider and the female was a pastave








    Lesser mojave spider as I did see a spider pattern just out the egg

    LOL. And I thought I did a nightmare pairing this season. Eye color is going to be important on these guys. Put the BEL under a blacklight and you may be able to see more detail. Get a picture of all but the BEL together in natural light.

    I am going to be very impressed if anyone gives you definitive answers on these.

    I think you are going to end up with a few that are something with another possible something and or another possible something.

    It's a nightmare pairing as far as you trying to sell them because the first 2 they either have mojave or lesser in them and when you start adding genes it a lot harder to identify.

    I would wait until day shed the color transition could be drastic after their first shed depending on whether or not they have fire in them.

    I have an idea on what they are but until they shed I will keep that to myself.

    Thank you for your reply that's what I was thinking it's the head patterns which are throwing me and the fire gene is maybe making it harder lol.
    The 1 without the spider pattern I was thinking firefly mojave but with the head been so light it's throwing me!

    The bel is a keeper so it's not over important that will get paired to 1 of my normals in a few years.

    The 2 bumblebee looking ones the heads look 2 clean 2 just be pastel spider they look more like killer bees but my male is not meant to have pastel in him.

    I didn't think it was going to be so difficult tbh was expecting 1 or 2 multi gene animals not all 6 from the clutch haha

    Thank you hopefully I Will have the same idea as you do just to stop me doubting my self so much, there deep in shed at the minute so will get some new photos soon.

    I will keep them all for as long as I need to am in no real rush to sell them. I think there is only 3 of them that will get sold at some point if I can bring my self to part with any of them.

    Hopefully there will be a little more clarity after the shed. I'm posting my nightmare clutch as soon as I can get a good pic. I was not too concerned about having to identify mine before they reached breeding age since I was primarily going after het lavenders but I only got two girls in the clutch. The boys have to go.

    I will look forward to seeing your ones!

    I have a butter girl just going throw her pre lay shed to the same male and I hope there not going to be so hard to identify if they are all fertile and hatch out.

    I also have 1 egg in the incubator from a pair of he pied so that should be easy most likely just be a normal be hope I hit the right odds
