Help with identification of normal

Got this snake as a normal 100% het pied and yellow belly are these pied markers? And any sign of yellow belly?

Normal het yellowbelly doesn’t make sense. If your snake was actually ‘het yellowbelly’ it would BE yellowbelly because hom YB would be an Ivory.

Het pied markers aren’t always correct. The only way to know if your snake is 100% het pied is to have the shed tested for pied, breed to a pied and get pied offspring, or one of the parents was pied.

Now the belly on this one does have some nice tracks, but I would still be wary of using that to ID the gene from het to het parents. It could just be a nice normal.
By saying it’s a normal het pied and YB already has me suspicious of the seller knew anything about the genes. It also tells me you may need to brush up on yours too so you don’t end up paying extra for a normal without mutations

Sorry the way I wrote it just is wrong they said it is yellow belly and 100% het pied and 100% het albino
I was trying to see if it truly is a yellow belly cuz all the videos I’ve watched I feel like I see some signs but not sure

I’m not seeing yellowbelly. The pattern doesn’t really have enough flaming IMO. Also the belly is too clean looking, not as checkered as it should be.

You can send the skin out for testing to Rare Genetics Inc to have it tested for albino, pied and Yellowbelly if you want to know for sure.
