DO THESE LOOK LIKE FIRES TO YOU..THEY WERE FROM A BIG BREEDER WHO HAS FIRES,BUT THSES WERE SOLD AS NORMALS.........

i would say normal because I highy doubt that a big breeder would sell a high end snake for the price of a normal. it is a good looking snake.

If the breeder bred fires and produced them out of any of his fire clutches, chances are he would have sold them as fires if they were. A fire next to a normal even as a baby tends to look a heck of a lot different if you are one who knows a fire from a normal. They may just be pretty normals, and light ones at that. Normals come in a variety of patterns and coloration. When in doubt, breed it out! Well supposing there is some trait to be bred out

First, if it's from a big breeder I can guarantee that it isn't a Fire. The babies are night and day different out of the egg and no one with some experience is going to make a mistake like that. Second, and more important, it doesn't look like a Fire. It looks like a nice light colored normal but it doesn't have any of the blushing or the lightened head area that Fires do. Post a picture of its belly if you would like a definitive answer.
