Gargoyle Ball Pythons from LLLReptiles


Hey y’all, I have a question on this snake that I hope someone can help me with. I got this Banana Gargoyle Ball Python from LLLReptiles at the April 2022 Phoenix Reptile Expo. I loved how he looked at the Expo so I got him planning to breed him in a couple of years. However I found out when I got home that there are 2 different Morph combos that are called “Gargoyle” and I don’t know which he is. I can’t find it listed on LLLReptiles website and didn’t get a response when I tried to send an Email to them. My guess is the much more common Cinnamon HRA version of Gargoyle verses the Black Pastel Lace Black Back version. but if anyone knows which kind LLLReptiles sells I’d really appreciate it!

(Also, I have nothing against LLLReptiles, I wouldn’t be shocked if I messed something up in trying to contact them)

I am sure it is the het red x cinnamon combo that is what usually is called gargoyle. It looks like one too, I love the gargoyle and het red combos! Also people call a het red x black pastel a onyx. Nice snake you have!

Thanks for the feedback! Just to clarify, the other “Gargoyle” combo I’ve seen is Black Pastel x Lace Black Back (A.K.A. Green Pastel). The few of those I’ve seen are often labeled “True Gargoyle” and that combo is also listed as “Gargoyle” on World of Ball Pythons. But I do agree it looks like the Cinnamon x HRA, and I appreciate the second opinion. :+1:
