Those are very beautiful hognose and normal patterned. But they are still a morph. So your statement is odd and confrontational. Anything other then normal is a morph(differs from normal).
All morphs, have at one time or are now, in nature or had been in nature at some point. Or we would not be able to surface them in captivity. Genes are not just a predictor of something, they are a record of something that has occurred.
As noted below, In the last year, I found in nature a number of morphs, so are they "normal"? I also found white background individuals and yellow background individuals and a couple of orange ones. So which ones are not normal? The axanthics outnumber some that folks consider normal.
This year a crazy banded one would found as well as patternless individuals. All in nature. Best wishes
I still say, I have not seen a keeper, any keeper, breed for ugly, which is pretty normal in nature. We tend to breed for exceptional, which is not normal. We means all of us. Including the keeper who produced those beautiful individuals.
