This one has not only me wondering but others who have seen it as well. It is an import that I picked out of a group because it looked kinda cool. Some have said it's a bad enchi, others that it could be a genetic reduced pattern (belly is wrong for that IMO) a really nice normal, or something new.
I was hoping to get opinions here. Nice normal or poor example of an enchi?
It has gold eyes, mustaching, a chin spot, head blushing, odd colored sides, etc.
Anyway, here are some bad photos. I know, not gonna help but I am not the best at photographing snakes.

Normal patterns can come in all kinds of shapes and colors. That is a stunning snake! Defiantly worth dinkering with...but I don't think anyone here could tell you if it's an enchi or not. I don't see it myself, as she resembles genetic reduced more then enchis I've seen. I have seen normals with that yellowing on their sides. It is not uncommon, especially when they are young.

I have seen tons of normals and dinkers with those same traits...since enchis are very subtle morphs, they tend to be the first guess to a BEAUTIFUL dinker.

Breed it to another enchi someday and see if you hit a super, but I would stick to calling her a dinker till then (a nice dinker!!)
