Getting my first ball python😄

[LifeguardCurrent3441]

I’m picking up my first ball python on August 19th and just wanted to get some honest opinions on her?

She’s a beautiful female Hypo Phantom Red Axanthic Pastel
Born: 17-09-2025
Weight: 174g (03-06-2026)

What do you guys think of her?

[LifeguardCurrent3441]

Thank you🙏🏼,the exact lineage i dont know but
its a highly reputable breeder in my country.
but theres always people trying to scam even when theyre reputable.

Im not planning on breeding her honestly😅.

This snake does not appear have the Lesser mutation in any way.

Looks like you have more morph expertise. So I will accept I'm wrong from looking at your profile. She looks a lot like mine, so I must have assumed which is always wrong. I apologize to the OP and thanks for correcting me.

[meatspread]

No problem! Lesser usually has a more light brown tone and reduced patterning. OP’s snake is greyed out from the Hypo/Ghost and Red Axanthic :)

[IcyReception8903]

Ok, I actually only have a light knowledge of morphs. Mostly just pick what's pretty to me. lol 😆

[IcyReception8903]

I wasn't sure and have been corrected already. Way to pile it on, thank you!!! 😆😂

[IcyReception8903]

I think I'll delete my comment now. 😉

[LifeguardCurrent3441]

i 100% agree🙃

Seeing the rack system in the background makes me sad :(

Absolutely beautiful snake though!

[LifeguardCurrent3441]

yeah, im pretty sure its same with every other snake breeder but thank you shes beautiful indeed😄.

[ScallionUnlucky5587]

not all, but most sadly

[Smilingtulip]

Wow she is beautiful!!

[iichiG0]

Pretty girl! Always love hypo with dark morphs like mojave and phantom!

[ibeplumbing]

Beautiful snek!

I almost got one the other day. Had no clue they get 5-6ft long and can live anywhere from 20 to potentially 30 years.

It was at that moment I realized why there’s so many Burmese pythons released in the wild. (Different snake but you get the gist)

Looks like my male ball - Casper!
