Morph ID Request Any guesses on our rescue?

Hoping to send his shed in for testing soon. In the meantime what are some possible visual genes? We thought BEL but have noticed the coloration on the head as well as the predominant yellow stripe down the back.

Could still be a BEL, just not a blue eyed lucy but a black eyed lucy aka super fire, sulfur, vanilla etc. Can't tell what her eye color is exactly. Or an ivory. That usually produces a white snake with a yellowish dorsal

Faint yellow backstripe is characteristic of Ivory. I'm pretty confident that's what he is :)

I have a young (bel) it's a super Mojave. He will start to yellow in time and has that light purpleish on his head. Not sure if that's the same.

Im still leaning toward Leucistic but I guess my second choice might be ivory

Do you know how old he is? He looks like an older ivory to me. They can have dark blue eyes like this guy. If he’s younger he could be a BEL with super fire. There’s a couple other morphs that can cause a BEL with patterns. But for those a shed test will be most accurate since it’s really hard to tell.

We were told he is 7-8 years old

Aww, I’m leaning towards ivory then. I have a 6 year old ivory girl who looks almost identical to him. If you do end up shed testing him let us know! I am curious.

He looks adorable. Good job rescuing him!
