species diognosis plz

hey all. i got this little girl a while ago, and the dealer told me she was an inland carpet. i had no quams, but seeing other pictures of say coastals and even some jungles kindof make you wonder. her markings are pritty strong but she doesn't have the meshed fizziness of an indland. just thought i'd ask ur opinions...
these an't the best pics ut they give some indication.
any ideas would be gr8.
thanx in advance.
Martyn

RE: species diognosis plz

Hard to tell from the pics.
The head pattern in the first pic looks alot like the pattern on young inlands.
But the colour looks a little like a coastal.
Use a the flash when you take pics, they wont be blurry.

She may not have the fizziness but she sure does have the fuzziness

The left hand side looks like a MD but the right hand side looks abit like a coastal but it is a bit blurry.
maybe its a hybrid or an intergrade, did you see its parents?

See the speckled belly? Inland python for sure. Coastals have cream/white under belly. Not all inland pythons are black and grey like the the Murray-Darlings.

I can't see much of the belly at all. My coastal has a very speckled belly at least 2/3 the length of her.
