    Ghost maybe? (load of pics)

    Was helping my friend out at the show this past weekend and he had some WC gravid balls. So toward the end of the show, I look at one and something about it caught my eye. Looked very different from all the other ones. I took it out and thought "this looks like a ghost". So I buy it off him on the spot. Then I go and get a couple opinions and they agree that it looks like a ghost as well. Now I have never owned a ghost, so they are somewhat new to me; adults at least.

    Got her home, soaked her, removed some ticks, and am now quarantining her.

    So usually I do not ask these "is my snake a morph" question, but this one is an exception. She has all the characteristics according to the Hunters Guide to Ghosts/Hypos

    What do you all think?

    Looks like a normal to me. But an exceptional one none the less.

    Doesn't look like a ghost to me.

    Does she shed clear? That will be a big indicator...

    A lot of that could be her hormonal glow if she's gravid.

    No idea. I'll find out some time in the future. Just got her Saturday.

    I would say not a ghost. You'll be able to see for sure if there's a pattern or not in the shed though.

    Adult ghosts that I've seen are usually much lighter. Here's an '03 male for example:

    I see what you're saying. I'm not very accustomed to seeing adult ghosts, maybe seen 2 tops.

    Hopefully she hasn't had her pre-lay shed yet and I can check then.
