Super pastel or firefly?

Update: Thank you all so much for your help!! I’ll be getting the babies shed tested to fully get a better idea of what’s going on. I’m so delighted that I accidentally produced fireflies without knowing it because they’re one of my favorite morphs that I wanted to produce from the beginning!

Hey all!
I have this hatchling from last year (hatched June 2025) that I’m starting to suspect is a firefly instead of a super pastel.

The pairing (as I understand it) is Male Super Pastel GHI het Genetic Stripe x Pastel het Genetic Stripe. I got the male shed tested last year with positive marks for everything above, but the panel I chose did not have Fire as an option at that time. Female was sold to me as a Fire, but when super pastel babies popped out I now know she is a Pastel.

So here’s what I’m wondering: Is my male potentially also Fire, meaning this baby is a firefly? He has hardly any head blushing while the super pastel genetic stripe babies I produced have a ton. He also have crazy contrast that has become more clear with age.

Sorry for the length, but what do you think?

Petco Morph?

Saw this sweet baby at petco and was intrigued by his/her lavender head. Looked way more vivid in person. Any ideas on morph? I'm not buy him/her, just curious.

Is my BP really a lemonblast?

My first snake. I bought her from a highly recommended breeder in my city, but she doesn’t look like the lemonblast you see on the morph sites.

Beautiful morph I saw at the store.

Hey everyone, I saw this beautiful ball python at a local Petco and was curious about what morph this is. I am pretty sure the albino is the one in the back. Can someone help me ID? Thanks.

Morph help

Was purchased as a Fire Leopard Yellowbelly/Granite. I’m happy with the purchase either way but I’m thinking these genes are not fully correct. Personally I’m not seeing any leopard.

Help to identify morph?

Hello all! I’ve adopted this big girl (3 y/o) last week from a local association, out of curiosity can anyone help me to identify her morph?

I’m guessing something like pinstripe, but the markings looks different and also she has no stamps on her head

Thanks to anyone that can help!

Is this a Spinner?

Got her from an expo and was told she was a Pinstripe Het for VPI(I think I spelled it right) Axanthic. But she's having issues with striking and even getting confused when eating. She gets a frozen thawed small rat every 3 weeks since she is on the thin side. I just want to see if anyone can tell me weather or not she has spider or anything the seller didn't tell me.

Morph ID please!

would like to know the morph of my Medusa girl! I think it's between a chocolate and huffman. I bought her from another owner so they didn't know either. It doesn't matter to me really I'm just curious! TIA!!

Is Paragon a pastel?

Was told she was "het pastel" but I read pastel is an incomplete dominant (looked that up and I think it makes sense). I'm mostly curious if she is more than a normal. For no other reasons, I won't ever be breeding.

It seems like she is to me, she looks a lot lighter yellow than the other normals my ex had.

Thanks for any info!

What is his Morph?

This is Sir Lewis, he was a rescue I took in a while back. I never looked into his morph, but I know it’s ‘Fire’ but with something else; yellow belly maybe?

Morph?

not the best pictures I know I only got him yesterday!!! I know for sure he’s a banana I just wondered if he has anything else in him

u/Crazy_Doughnut6325 — 8 days ago

What morph is this?

I just adopted this from my local shelter, it’s a smaller female but the rescue was not sure what morph it was. I love how it looks and just wanted to know. It’s my first snake

How is this possible

Just got his genetic test back he is Het for Fire and Russo and Homo for piebald. To my understanding it would not be possible for him to be all white. He clearly is.
