    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

new girls help please

So I purchased a group of adults and such a few weeks ago and they have all settled in now. I have a few females that I bought as normal adults but they look different from my normal. So I think they are beautiful either way but I want to know what you all think?? Maybe they are something else?? Ok so If they are what are the best options for breeding them to try and figure them out? Really appreciate help, pics are in diffused sunlight through a window.
Thanks

pics 1 and 2 are female D
pics 3 and 4 are female A

I have belly pics too if needed, they don't have clear bellies like normal females do.

While granite is a good guess based on the markers that are present with the first girl, I believe both are likely related and therefore not granites. I do believe they have a different look to them and they show characteristics of jungle also. The look of the pattern and the tail sections of those girls are strong indicators. They rarely prove genetic though, but it is certainly worth breeding out no matter what. With just two girls I would breed them to a BEL member and a YB to see what happens. Just my opinion, but good luck with them.
 
The belly pics are ok but very washed out from bad lighting and window glare. I haven't been in the ball python world long enough to look at a non normal-ish looking ball and know what to match it to to prove things out yet. So thanks to all and to those whom do for the help :)
