Re: can anyone help out on morph
It's hard to tell from such a small photo, but it looks like a normal ball python to me. A granite ball python would have much more speckling on the sides, which yours doesn't have. Granite - Morph List - World of Ball Pythons

Re: can anyone help out on morph
a normal x pastel would look exactly like a normal but have the gene (het) for Pastel.
For a normal that is alot of money, but petshops are notorious for WAYY overcharging for snakes!!

Re: can anyone help out on morph
it has to do with the size of the pics you upload, if theyre bigger then they will automatically downsize to fit the thread. Thats when you can click on the pic to see the bigger image.
