This is Joker. I was told he's a harlequin but now I think he's either a phantom or something else. I was also told that he has het pied markings as well. I'm trying to find out what he may be, or wanna be. I do plan on breeding him, but first I'm looking for some opinions before I try and prove him out. Thanks.

This is a pic of his belly. Very unique I'd say.

Thats a nice one you have there. Have you kept snakes and/or breed Ball Pythons before? Also, are you sure its a male? Make sure you keep him, dont take a quick $750 someone might offer you (unless you want to), you have a nice snake there and a really great project to work on that will keep you busy for years. Now thats special if you are into snakes.

I am not sure either but I have a male like him as well that I am trying to prove out. Here is a few pics of him. I had R. davis and Pete Kahl take a look and they both agreed that there was something going on but they wern't sure. I have babies from him that I will be breeding back to him next year, But they look like him too. Thanks

Hey,

Looks like the belly is clear- major blushing, strange yellow color, the pattern like nothing I've seen. Man, find somebody who has a similar one and breed it! (After you feed it!!!)

Yep,
That's a Harlequin.
A decent looking one too.
So far they have been proven at least Dominant.
But, I am pretty sure we will see a super...(making it a co-dom.)
The Harleys do sort of resemble Phantoms. (good eye)
I personally think Harleys belong in the Platinum Complex.
We shall see....

Nice snake. Good luck with it.
