What morph is this? My first ball python

I was told a chocolate, but that doesn’t seem right from what I’ve looked up. Based on the closest photos, clown/mojave/chocolate are similar, but still not quite right. He is an adoption, so parents unknown. Thank you!

Definitely not Mojave or clown.

I want to say maybe something In the Black Eye Lucy complex. Fire seems likely.

Without parent info there’s not really a way to tell for sure unless you test the skin sheds. Guesses can be wrong because a lot of random things can happen pattern and colorwise at times that can’t be reproduced.

No Mojave, Clown or Chocolate that I’m seeing.

Judging on how light it is it may be a Fire or Pastel. Without knowledge of the parents your best best is going to RGI on Morphmarket and getting a shed test done.

Thank you! Just wanted to be sure I wasn’t missing an obvious answer. He doesn’t look exactly like any of the tested morphs I’ve seen in photos.
