There is definitely an ultramel look in those animals. Keep in mind that they're not ultras, and this means your breeder is not a full ultra. Yes, they are actually in possession of the ultra gene, but they are the het version which is called ultramel (ultra amel). All babies would have been ultramels if the breeder was in fact, ultra. There would have been no amels.
Okay, that outta the way, we must speak about your incubation. Please, tell me that the shape of the heads in your pix are because you were constraining them for the pix. lol. I ask because at 80F, your snakes should have hatched in 60-66 days. If you really did get them out of the eggs in six weeks, your thermometer is busted. To speed incubation like that, your snakes would have been cooking at 88F . If that were the case, deformities could have resulted. If you're not squeezing the necks/heads of those snakes for the pic (no harm in that), your snakes have deformed heads. It appears that the shape of the heads is because of constrainment for photography. ???
