Hello, Would anyone kindly help in identifying the genetics of these hatchlings please?
Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.
photo 1 is the dad photo 2 is mom
All babies have had their first shed
To your knowledge, what genetics do the parents have? I’m seeing what looks like a low expression leopard in the first parent photo you posted, and I’m guessing mom is an enchi or super enchi with something yb complex? Is that correct to your knowledge?
Also, these pictures are unfortunately a bit dark - we can try to help you ID but it’s going to be difficult with these photos. If you could get photos of them outside in natural light on a flat surface with fewer dark shadow, that would be helpful.

Based solely on these photos, I believe you have:
Baby 1: enchi
Baby 2: enchi
Baby 3: enchi leopard
Baby 4: enchi yellowbelly

If dad is a leopard he is very low expression. I would have him shed tested to verify. I don’t really see it in the offspring either in these photos, but bad odds do happen.
As far as babies-
1 enchi
2 enchi
3 enchi yb
4 enchi yb
Edit to add- better photos (especially of 3) would definitely help. Three could be enchi yb Leo, but it’s hard to really get a good look at the markings on the body.

Thank you for the reply, to the best of my knowledge dad is leopard and mom is super enchi yellow belly.
I’ll have to wait for better pictures as my wife has the better camera and I’ve just realized I put a different snake this is dad

I’ll definitely get better pictures not sure about taking them outside atm due to weather.
As I’ve said in the other reply I uploaded a different picture not dad by mistake updated now to the correct one.
mom laid a clutch of 8 just unfortunately 4 were slugs.

That is definitely a Leo boy! Thanks for the clarification and fix.
With that fixed I agree with Inspiration on the IDs with 3 looking to be pos yb as well.
