I posted a picture of this guy when I first got him earlier this Spring. He's a very unusual Ball Python. He's growing fast and eating like a champ so I may be able to prove him out this season. Hope he proves out. Hope you guys like him as much as I do....

I have a similar female, but she doesn't have nearly the blushing of that guy.
Did he always have that?

Take care,

Reminds me of a Jaguar more than any Carpet Python out there! Nice!

Very nice Oz. Should be interesting to see what a pastel bred to that would look like. By the way the female I got from you is a freaken pig. She is already 1300 grams. I am very happy with her.

I have to show this to a friend on this site, hgiddings....she picked up a baby female that looks almost exactly like yours. No yellow to speak of, just brown and black and white, with faded spots and blushing up from the sides. She named her Godiva....That's scary. What a pretty snake!

What Kikai said. Godiva doesn't have quite as much blushing as your guy and she has a lot of banding on the mid to posterior dorsal surface. Not many ocelli, same as your guy. Any way to get a more lateral view of him. He's lovely by the way

Actually now that I'm on a computer with a decent screen I'd say mine is an even darker brown than yours. I'd love to see a side shot of him

Hey OZ;
Looks like some sort of cinnamon pastel. Really nice. Hey your female Pastel is pounding f/k rat fuzzies!!!! SJM
