Hey guys! So I recently acquired a normal male baby from a not so great situation. He’s eating and healthy now, but I don’t know a lot about where he came from. I know he’s a normal, but I’m wondering if he’s yellowbelly as well? Any input would be useful. Here’s some pics of him with my lil cinnamon banana boy.

With the whole identification of yellow belly @t_h_wyman it’s very good and talented at identifying yellow belly.

No Yellowbelly. I’m not the best at identifying YB, but I’m very confident that’s not a Yellowbelly.

Ok thank you! What made you come to that conclusion? Trying to learn as I go with these animals. I know the belly doesn’t really have the checkering but his headstamp and brightness kinda made me suspect.

From the pictures, I don’t see enough flaming to consider it a Yellowbelly. I could be wrong, and when @t_h_wyman is back on here on Monday, he can give you a definitive answer I’m sure.

To me it looks like a possible fire or something from that complex.

His eyes are a lighter color, normal BP’s are usually darker aren’t they?
I with @westridge on this one. No yellowbelly but the color and head stamp is giving me a vanilla vibe. I feel fairly confident it has a black eyed Lucy gene present!

Yeah, not seeing YB complex in that animal

This I would agree with.
That said, unless/until you breed it out, I would hesitate to make an absolute identification as such

Not planning on breeding, maybe in a couple years when I’m more educated on them. But for now just have a couple as amazing pets. But thank you so much for your input!
