How exactly can you be sure you have a yellow belly morph? I found a ball at the pet store, the sides along his ventral scales are yellow, but I don't know how to differentiate.

Here is what Kevin McCurley from NERD said when asked in his chat session 10-31-04:
"NERD,INC: Ok, the only certain way to get a bonafide yellowbelly is to get it from someone that makes the ivories. I think I know what a yellow belly is and I have a number, But there are ones that kind of look like it but I am not sure about it until I breed it... It is incomplete dom type thing possibly. Lots of vanishing on the sides and some frosting with weird yellow too but...they come in out of the wild. some sneak by and you could get one for DIRT!! So they are fun!!!"
I have heard others same the same. The only 100% way of knowing is buy from someone that has already produced ivories.
