INTRODUCTION:

The Gravel Ball Python is a colour and pattern altering mutation that can be hard to tell apart from a Normal Ball Python.

VISUAL DESCRIPTION

Head: The head of a Gravel Ball Python is very similar to that of a Normal Ball Python, though slightly darker tones fading to a light crown with a slight stamp near the neck.

Body: The body of the Gravel Ball Python is usually covered in mis-shaped “alien heads”, with heavy blushing between. Dorsal stripes are usually a brighter shade than that of the alien heads.

Base Morph Incomplete Dominance (Co-dom)

INTRODUCTION:

The Scaleless Head Ball Python is visually near identical to a Normal Ball Python, apart from the lack of scales in that tend to be missing from the head.

VISUAL DESCRIPTION

Head: The Scaleless Head Ball Pythons head can range from missing a few scales to the whole crown being absent. Colouration and markings are usually consistent with that of a Normal Ball Python.

Body: The body of the Scaleless Head Ball Python follows the same pattern and colouration of a Normal Ball Python.

Tail: The tail of the Scaleless Head Ball Python follows the same pattern and colouration of a Normal Ball Python. Though scale count near the cloaca has been noted, it is yet unconfirmed if this is a genetic trait with all Scaleless Head Ball Pythons.
