Seen this a few time on the net, always the picture. On kingsnake the "owner" says " Black ball python produced by BHB enterprises.This is the result of breeding cinnamon pastel to another cinnamon pastel."

But being the skeptic I am I think this picture was photoshoped. I dont know, something about it just seems to black, and the bedding around it seems to have some "run off" of color. I dont tyhink I have any photo editing programs but I'll check, can anyone brightin this picture up alil to see for sure?

thanks. Im about 80% sure it's a hoax but you never know.

Oh no, dont tell me you cant link pet hobbyist pictures here?

Not if its linked to KS in any shape or form. Try photobucket.com but i think you might need to register.

This 'black ball' that you speak of is not a photo-shopped pic, it/they is/are the real deal. The name of this morph(s) is/are the "Super Cinnamon" or "Black Pastel" depending on who you chose to believe. They are the result of two "Cinnamon" balls produced by Greg Graziani OR two "Labyrinth" balls produced by GCR.

Just change the ***'s to "****************" and there you have it. That is a very interesting snake. Mykee, who is GCR? Thanks.

There were/are wild caught "black balls" floating around the for a little while, but they usually had messed up faces (upturned snouts). I believe Brian (BHB) was the first to produce the super cinny, however. I saw it first hand in Daytona this year (I think Corey held it)........if it's photoshop'd, it sure prints out nice

VPI's patternless are gorgeous, but mom and dad look like normals so they would be recessive right?

Thanks hhw.

Man, alot of people have these "Black balls" or "super whatevers".........Lol, too many names for them. I think its kind of ridiculous actually. Quick question too, what does a cinnamon pastel go for? Thanks.
