Hi Guys
Just wondering i got this snake given to as a Stimsons python but from my knowlege they are not Stimsons markings, i could be wrong but i'm thinking spotted python, any opinions would be greatIMG_1156.jpgIMG_1153.jpg
Thanks
 
Looking at the blotches, i would say spotted and a nice one at that
 
I agree with Shotta. There are lots of spike like irregularities to the edges of the blotches versus smoother edges in Simmiies. The dorsal blotches coalesce at the anterior end (and probably do the same toward the back end) and are oriented lengthways. While in Stimmies they tend to remain separate and be oriented saddle-like across the mid-line. It also has the 'butterfly' shaped blotch on the head that is very typical of Spotteds but not Stimmies.

Blue
 
you could almost say CTB (type) or at least one parent a Blonde (type). solar 17. ~B~
 
Thank you guys for all you opinions much appreciated, yeah I also thought of a blonde solar 17 but just thought I would get some opinions
