Very pretty sunglow. You can't tell visually if she's a coral or a Lipstick.... you'd have to have "papers" so to speak. As the above poster said, all a Lipstick is, is a bloodline by Tom Burke that generally has a lot of color and contrast. If BOTH parents are Lipsticks then you can say she's a Lipstick. If one is a Lipstick and the other isn't then you can say she's a Lipstick line sunglow. This is how Tom Burke told me to market them in his opinion the last time I spoke with him. Sure some will be more true to the Lipstick name and display extraordinary color and contrast, but they are all technically Lipstick lines if they came from that line. Corals I really feel should be the same way. I would want to know that the boa I purchased was from several generations of boas that had proven to have more coraling than your standard albino or sunglow before I spent the extra money on a "coral." They are just selectively bred albinos and sunglows so the coral part is a polygenic trait, not an actual morph. I hope that helps some!
