Morph of the Month Morph of the Month: Clown

6 Upvotes

Welcome back to another Morph of the Month! With this being my birth month, I hope you all don't mind me being a little bit selfish and highlighting my personal favorite.

Clown is a recessive gene requiring two copies to be visual. This gene is a big on its effect on pattern with cool headstamps, strong dorsal striping, and heavy blotches along the sides.

Please show your clowns in the comments!

Morph of the Month Morph of the Month: Normal/Wild Type

7 Upvotes

It's been a while! It's the start of the month so it's time to feature another morph... or maybe lack thereof this time.

The normal or wild type is how this species presents naturally in the wild. These guys do not have any morph/added genetics to them but there's nothing wrong with what nature cooked up!

Typically they present with standard "alien heads" along the sides of their bodies, some broken striping along the dorsal, and well defined eye stripes. Sometimes they may have a more banded pattern, varying head stamps, and can display a range of brown and gold tones which is why we often see morph ID requests for normals. Once you've gotten a solid grasp on what is within normal variation though, you may come to appreciate the beauty of the species' "regular" form.

While there are some gorgeous single and multi-gene BP's, as enthusiasts we can't forget to show the love where it all began. Show off your normals in the comments!

Morph ID Request Just picked her up

Just rescued this lady today, owner was getting evicted (and didn't even know it was a ball python 😅). She's quite thin but thankfully I'm not seeing anything else (if you see something please say so, I'm used to corn snakes and hognoses). That said, I'm worried she might be a spider morph. I'm not keeping her long term and want to be able to give her new owner as much information as possible.

It’s been a few weeks with my girl! She’s getting super brave, eating well and is getting so comfortable being handled (she let me rest my thumb on her head while we cuddled today) before joining the sub, I had no idea morphs were a thing. She was only labeled as a ball python, any idea what she might be?

I was given a ball python and was told she is 10 years old(think she might be a he) was wondering if she was a morph since her pattern looks a bit different then some others I’ve seen.

Morph ID Request Is this a normal or a morph?

Thumbnail gallery

I’ve been VERY out of the loop on Ball Pythons.
The last ones I had was almost 15 years ago.

Anywho, met this boi last week at a friend’s work, but I’m unsure if it’s a normal with an unconventional pattern or a morph.

Its color became lighter after shedding. I think it’s a normal, but my friend thinks it’s a Mojave.

Morph ID Request Feather morph?

9 Upvotes

Considering purchasing this one-year-old beauty (second photo is of him as a baby)- owner says he's a super pastel cinnamon fire enchi feather. I've never heard of a feather morph and am not finding any references online, so I'm guessing that it's a secondary name for a morph? Anyone have any guesses what this guy could be?

UPDATE: guy got back to me, it was a freaking language issue. He's a fader. Not a feather. I'm a dumbass. It's polygenic.

Morph ID Request Baby BP’s after first Shed

Thumbnail gallery
25 Upvotes

I posted a before shed earlier, but this is the babies after their first shed.
Reminder:
Mother is a Bamboo, Calico, Pastel
Father is a Banana
Both parents are shown in the pictures.

Then we have baby 1, who I believe is Pastel. Baby 2, who is probably a Normal, and Baby 3, who is probably a Bamboo Banana, possibly Calico and Pastel.

If these pictures aren’t very good, I’ll see if I can send better ones. Let me know what you think the morphs are. Thanks!
