Both Pumba and Ginger are gorgeous snakes...but no-where near as gorgeous as your daughter !! It is wonderful that you are already getting her so involved with your snakes. Pumba looks lovely and relaxed with her and she certainly seems happy with him. How old is she? The only problem I have is the number of mums who now complain that their kids want snakes cos they have come over to see my kids and had a chance to meet my 2!!
One question - may just be the angle of the photo, but how many hides do you have in each of their vivs? By the looks of it there is only one in Pumba's when ideally there should be two, one at the warm end and one at the cold.
They both have such striking colouring and it is interesting the way they get darker further down the body. I cant help you with whether they are normals or okeetee....you will have to wait for the 'Morph Master' *shouts 'Eeji!!!, where are you when you are needed?!!*

How old are Pumba and Ginger? What are they feeding on at the moment and how often?
The best way to work out what size 'dinner' is right for them is by their weight. This is a VERY rough guide to snake/mouse feeding:
1 Pinkie: 1 to 5 days old (0.5 - 3g) - feed every 5 to 6 days (Snake = 4-15g)
2 Pinkies (3-4g) – feed every 5 to 6 days (Snake = 16-23g)
Small Fuzzy: 6 to 13 days old (3 - 6g) – feed every 6 to 7 days (Snake = 24-30g)
Fuzzy (7-9g) – feed every 6 to 7 days (Snake = 30-50g)
Fluff/Hoppers: 2 to 3 weeks old (7-12g) - feed every 6 to 7 days (Snake = 51-90g)
Small Adult/Weaned: 3 to 4 weeks old (13-18g) - feed every 7 days (Snake = 91-170g)
Large: 4 to 6 weeks ((19 to 25g) – feed every 7 to x days (snake = 170g+)
X large: 6 months + old (350 +) – feed every 10 to x days (Snake = 170+)
The guide for feeding is 1.5 times the width of the snake, thats a maximum size and you can work out if your snake needs to move up in size when there is no longer a bump once they have eated their 'dinner'.
Hope this is of some help.

I'd say they're both normals. |

id say your male is definately a normal and your female probably is too - although she has more black bordering her saddles than your male |
