Looks nice.... maybe a burgundy hypo?
The pic is pretty small though. Do you have a larger one?

Looks like a normal to me. Very light but next to dark one most balls would. If you don't know it's orgins all you can do is breed it and try and prove it out. Very nice no matter what.
Cheers,
Trevor

to me it looks very similar to the Desert Ghosts on NERDS web site http://www.newenglandreptile.com/ball_desertghost.html go look for yourself by the way how much did you pay for it.

It does look like the desert ghost, but the desert ghosts have a more regular pattern whereas this one has an irregular pattern and the desert ghost has elongated spots on is back. Pretty cool!

Then I think you need glasses.
Mo, that's a very nice snake, I hope it proves to be genetic .

Very funny Ryajn you know I wear glasses.lol I've got one upstairs that is almost that light. The reason I don't think it's a ghost is because the black is faded enough. A ghost is a hypo axanthic which mean no yellow and reduced black. That black in that snake is not reduced. You know what it looks like to me, an artic ball. That's what it looks like to me. Hey I've been wrong before and God knows I'll be wrong again and for the sake of the owner I hope I am. But like I said we'll know for sure once it's proven out.
Cheers,
Trevor

Actually isn't it a hypo-melanistic????   
Well, it doesn't really matter what ANY of us think. It's a darn-nice ball python and the proof WILL be in the pudding.
Best of luck with her, Mo!

Tim,
What I was doing was drawing on my understanding of corn genes.
Amel= No black
Anery= No Red
Hypo= Reduced black
Ghost= Anery + Hypo. In other words no red and a reduced black.
I assumed that the same held true for balls. Only with balls a lack of yello is called axanthic. So I assumed ghost in balls was the same thing, a hypo axanthic. Does that makes sense?
Sapphire,
Check out Ralph Davis's web site he works with artic balls.
Cheers,
Trevor
