Question Green Ball???

Hey all, I am wondering something. I was given my second ball python, Jive, a few months ago. She wasn't wanted anymore, and the owner knew I would take her in.
Anyways, at first I figured she was just a regular ball, no known hets or anything. However, as she is getting larger and shedding more often, I am noticing that she has a distinct green hue to her entire body. Her sides are light green and yellow, with the upper part being a dark green that is clearly visible in natural light (we got these new daylight bulbs for the kitchen).
Does anyone know what this is? I never paid too much attention to her coloration before, except to check for bites, mites, etc. I first noticed this about 3 weeks, ago, but figured I was mistaken. Today I had her out for about 1/2 hour, inspecting her (she just shed last night). She is a wonderful color that is difficult to capture with the digi cam.
She is kept on paper towel now (for a couple days she was on newspaper, but it had no green ink on it).
Thanks to anyone who has some ideas, and I will try to get some decent pics tomorrow.

TK

No, she doesn't look like that one (green ghost?). I got one good pic of her color, I will post that.
It is an amazing color, and I am quite surprised how beautiful it looks.

Thanks

TK

Pic was taken last night, no enhancing of the pic, except to make it smaller to post it here.

I think most of mine have that colouration on them, especially the more yellow ones.

Hate to say it, but everyone thinks their normal is special!
I mean, all snakes are special, but yours is not a morph.....

I didn't think she was a morph, I was just curious as to why she was green She's a sweet and colorful ball regardless

Thanks for the input
