Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Is This A Fire BP?????
I just got this in a trade. It is supposed to be a fire but I haven't had much luck finding a sight that shows the visual markers. I took a couple picture and thought I might get some help around here. Thanks in advance for any advice / help

This guy was supposed to be a reputable dealer at the Anderson, SC show
It is hard to know who to trust. Does anyone know of a site that gives quality examples / photos of how to tell the more subtle morphs apart?

I'm no expert, but when I checked around, the one you have seems a little too dark to be a fire. It looks like the colors should be more washed out and vanilla-like. You can try breeding it out someday to make sure I suppose.
Here's some sites with pictures http://www.constrictors.com/Collecti...allPython.html and http://www.bobclark.com/d_learn.asp?id=131&cat=learn and here's a video that compares one to a normal http://www.worldofballpythons.com/videos/morphs/22/
Personally when it comes to low-key morphs like that, I'd only buy from folks with a good, solid reputation. (Check the BOI) Preferably someone easy to get a hold of and in the public's eye so you know they aren't going anywhere. Paperwork can't hurt and if he produced it himself then he should have pictures of the parents and clutch. If not maybe ask him who did produce it and try to contact the original breeder for confirmation.
Sorry about that, but best of luck getting things figured out~
