Normal Ball?

doutriponair Oct 31, 2007 02:34 AM

So I purchased a 100% het ghost from the Chantilly show on saturday but he look so different from my normal female. He's MUCH brighter than she is, his light markings are a yellow colour instead of the tan...normal for a ball? my fiancee seems convinced he's not a normal ball but I don't see any reason why the breeder would've lied about that...thanks for any opinions

Normal balls are variable in appearance. One can look quite a bit diffrient than the next. I have some that are very light and others that are very dark. Hope this helps.

Yeah, that's normal. Like previous reply said...Normal ball pythons are extremely variable all on their own. I have some babies I hatched out that are almost as bright as some ugly pastels that I've seen...and I know for a fact that both their parents are totally normal!

Just one of the cool things about balls.
