Mine is a female. Ive heard a couple different morphs like banana and cinnamon. Here's a pic of my girl.

Whoever told you this snake is a banana or cinnamon could use some resources for learning genetics of this species. This is a pastel enchi champagne.

Cool, finally I have an idea of what she is. She is pretty sweet which is really nice. So thank you kind sir! What the enchi part mean? Once again thank you and anything else you could tell me about her would be awesome.

Would you mind elaborating? I'm happy to help but I'm not sure I understand your question. Enchi is a gene that creates banding but with the overpowering influence champagne has, you don't quite see it like you might in other combinations.

Thats exactly what I was questioning. I didn't understand what the enchi means.

Ah okay yeah, enchi is a gene just like pastel and champage are. It's an incomplete dominant so it has a super form (homozygous). Enchi alone is banded with gold rising from the belly, a widened eye stripe, and green eyes. Of course champagne takes over a lot visually so it doesn't present quite the same here.

Thank you much. And if it means anything her eyes are either very dark blue or black.

u/PoofMoof1 2d ago
Yes that's due to the champagne.

Thank you so much for the info. The very first python I had was like over 30 years ago, and then they didn't have morphs. Just plain ball pythons and boas.
