There's an ad in the ball python classifieds for a Calico. Here's the link:

http://market.kingsnake.com/detail.php?cat=32&de=105215

I contacted the seller about it being a calico or not. I got an honest response that he had checked with some breeders and they stated that it is a calico and that they had never seen anything like it.

I'm curious and would like to hear the opinion of those that use this forum. Also, if you happen to be one of the breeders that was contacted by Dave Lawson for your opinion and you identified it as a calico, PLEASE email me. The ball in the post is a male and I happen to have a female that looked just like that when she was purchased. She too is an "unknown".

When I posted pics of mine in the forum most of the responses were the same, never seen one like it. One breeder stated that it was a scar but scars don't follow the outline of blotches or stripes, nor do they appear on both sides of the head creating a symetrical pattern. She has gone through some changes and I'll post a new pic after hearing some responses.

Thanks

Here's some pics of mine.
