Photos might help.
The downside is that it is a bit difficult to tell spark from yellowbelly at times. Also, you can have a dual sired clutch and possibly have both anyway.
I have seen super sparks listed with breaks in the pattern. the main difference I can see from some comparisons is the dorsal stripe is more pronounced on the super stripes regardless of if there are breaks or not. And by pronounced I mean the yellow seems to be slightly wider of a marking possibly with less black framing it.

I'd look at the headstamps to try and differentiate. That's where there is the most notable difference between Super Spark and Super Stripe. Take a peek at some pictures on MM with filter set to show all instead of just for sale and you should be able to see what I mean.
On Super Spark the blushing in the head is a lot stronger and very little of the brown/black should be pronounced in that area. On a Super Stripe, you will have more variation in blushing where some area has pronounced brown/black, some is a little washed, and some is completely erased, usually forming a yellow donut-diamond type of shape.

Thanks guys I'm more than happy to help and it feels great to be appreciated. I love how 9 times out of 10 when I can't answer, someone else can. We have a great community here and Bogertophis is owed a great deal of thanks for doing such a great job modding and answering all sorts of questions, even if BP genetics is one he has to sit out on a lot of the time.

You are VERY MUCH appreciated here, & for the record, I stay out of BP genetics entirely! It amazes me how you (& a few others) can sort out these details & figure out what they are!
Partly, it's because I no longer keep any BPs- it's been some years, & when I did, they were all "normals" anyway, so I've never gotten involved with all their morphs.
