but i answered my own question pertaining to my jcp since everyone refused to give me a straight yes or no answer. i dont care if you dont like ball pythons and think that an albino should cost the same as a normal or what. all i needed was a yes or a no. how difficult is that?

No need to be a jerk. The one picture you posted (that was visible to all of us) is not exactly clear or close enough to tell. Also, the only way to really know if it was a cross anyway would be to go back to the person you bought it from and see if you can trace the birth history. I've seen 50%/50% jungle/diamond crosses that looked no different from normal jungles and some that looked almost totally diamond. Yours just looked like a typical jungle to me but with out a history it's to difficult to say either way. Just relax and be happy with the animal you have. They brought up the ball python morph thing because many people are looking to see if their snake can be considered some type of morph so they can either brag or charge more for the animal. Most of the people in this forum seem to actually care about the animal and aren't here to have their ego stroked or looking to try and charge more for their "normal" animal. I'm not saying that you are but that sort of thing is seen quite often all over the forums on kingsnake.com. If you didn't receive either the answer you wanted or a definate yes/no answer then that means more research needs to be done and not that we're ignoring you or trying to alienate you. Sorry if I seemed harsh here but I don't appreciate attitude being given to people who are only trying to help, if they can help.

sorry for being an A-hole but it was the only way to get a straight forward answer. im sorry if i dont have a 300 megapixel camera like all you rich people have but the pic was easily viewable and quite clear on my pc. im not curious as to the heredity of the animal and i am quite happy with it, what i was curious about is the fact there are jcp's and diamond pythons but jcp's have diamomds on them. how can you tell the diff between a jcp and a jcp X diamond?

Unless it's extremely obvious, such as very little yellow and a multitude of small white or whitish scale clusters and just looks like a diamond all around, you won't know if it's a cross unless the person you bought it from tells you. Like I said, yours looks like a normal jcp to me. About the picture though, I was talking about a close up of any portions you might think were similar to a diamond not the pixel size or how expensive the camera was. The one pic was clear just not showing anything remotely diamond like. I would say that you could find some pics of pure diamonds and compare those characteristics to yours. The only way of knowing for sure is to see the parents.
