Okay so this is doyle, I've had him for a year (tomorrow) but I just wanna know what morph he is. I've been told oketee but in my opinion he doesnt have enough black markings to be oketee? The closest I saw on Ians vivarium was lava.. but i'm still unsure.
His belly is white usually, unless its a few weeks after shedding and it turns slightly orangey. with no black checkered appearence, but he has very very tiny black dots.

what do you guys think?



Isn't he sweet :'D

He is stunning. Possibly a hypo motley but I could be way off the mark as i still get them wrong lol. He is gorgeous. How big is he?

I think the problem is, alot of them look quite similar so it's hard to distinguish between certain types.

I havn't measure him properley for a while becaouse he wiggles alot but my tank is 24" long so compared to that i think hes about 30" long at the moment :)

Looks like a motley something - that'd explain his white tummy too
Maybe a hypo or normal?

Lava is a form of Hypomelanism, its a single trait morph and dosn't contain Amel. Although i would also say he was a Hypo Motley.

motley has its own hypo effect so he could well be normal motley. Its often very difficult to tell by eye the difference between normal mot and hypo mot so the only 100% way to tell would be to test breed
