Question on Morphs/Gentics/what morph is she?

[JackS]

Good evening/good morning to wherever you maybe! My girl is finally off of her hunger strike and fed for the first time in 6 months the other week and I went to do her routine poop check and thought it would be the perfect time to post this, although I feel kinda guilty after I lifted her hide and seen she was in blue! 🙈 I know they can retain sperm and meant to post this a while back but her “Dad” was a normal pin stripe and Mum was a pastel and my mate promised me an “oddball” after they hatched but this one female came out completely different from the rest of the clutch… The mum was sold to my mate after she failed to breed for the previous owner the year before (3 years ago) and I was wondering if this was retained sperm and what morph she might be as I decided to wait until she was an adult to be sure… We are currently arguing as I think she is microscale super pastel but he is convinced she is a very bright normal scaleless head. Anyone versed in Morphs available to help settle a friendly wager? (who pays for the next round of golf)! 🤣

I'd lean toward a single-gene Pastel instead of a Super, and I'd vote Scaleless Head over Microscale. Look of the heat pit and head scales says the former rather than the latter to me, but hopefully someone else will chime in

I feel like microscale and scaleless head are one of those lesser/butter or phantom/mystic situations where it's the same genes with slight polymorphism. Until they start getting crossed out and watered down...

definitely one of the 'scale' genes. And I would say pastel, not super pastel.
I don't believe scaleless head or microscale would affect the eye color like pastel does, but it does sometimes also make funky patterns or really brighten up other morphs.

Neat!
I've never seen a scaleless head ball python with such a large divide between the two forward top nose scales and so many partially formed scales around the tip.

Not my cup of tea though...I like my snakes with a full set of armor.
