Sorry, I wasn't exact in my statement. That female looks like examples from a line that exhibits itself in similar manner to the Vanilla mutation. The two particular adults I am referring to are not from Chris's/Gulf Coast lineage but will most likely prove to be the same mutation with a different parental appearance...along the same lines as Cinnamon/Black Pastels. Some of those first "Labyrinth" animals that Chris had...no one would have believed they were the same thing as the Graziani line of Cinnamons back then but they did prove to be compatible...and produce the same super, just a slightly different expression in color.
There's going to prove to be as much variation in mutations as there is in normal Ball pythons. So nailing down a "look" for any of them will be difficult. I mean look at the vartiation in proven Yellowbelly or Mojave lines, some are knockout no-doubter mutations and some are difficult to discern from a slightly abberant normal...especially as adults. Anyway's it was not meant to compare Chris's line of animals to the female in the photo.
