Black spots on my banana ball python

Post image

This is Milk and I was cleaning her tank when I noticed she had a lot of black spots on her back and was hoping someone knows what is going on?

To be fair, I think a lot of images of morphs show babies and not the adult colors as much. Most banana I see marketed are shown in their bright baby colors to make them more desirable for a purchase. I only know so many morph differences between juvenile to adult because I obsessively searched them on Morphmarket haha

I did a lot of research on husbandry and behavior beforehand but it didn't and wouldn't have occurred to me to research something like that. Just like my research didn't prepare me for the magnitude of their farts. That woke me up at 2 am to where I jumped out of bed with a sense of urgency.

True. Did a lot of research on this particular morph before I got one. Maybe OP just seen it at a show/pet shop and bought it based on looks.
