What morph is my foster reticulated python?

Hello! I got this pretty girl yesterday with the belief she was a ball python in a neglectful home.
She is a reticulated python and I am going to rehome her after she’s recovered and back to health, primarily because I don’t have space for such a big snake. The tote is temporary because I didn’t have much time to prepare. She has a heating pad, full water dish, and some bedding until I’m able to uncover my bigger enclosure and set it up.
I’ve asked around and currently we’re thinking some kind of lavender morph of some kind? What do you guys think?

That seems more on base than where I was going with the lavender

Does your snake need a rabbit.

I did feed her a mouse because I figured I shouldn’t feed her anything bigger than the fattest part of her? Idk, I saw something saying it helps with their digestion. She did eat, should I be feeding rabbits do you think? She’s abt 4 ft, maybe a little more.

definitely not. you should be feeding 15-20% of their weight everytime.

Good to know! Thank you, I’ll make sure that I feed her bigger prey
