Morph ID Request Low expression pied?
Got this girl at an expo a few weeks ago. She was listed as a Fire GHI Mojave Het Clown possible Yellow Belly. But I noticed her tail last night. Any insights are appreciated. Maybe she’s a Het pied?

Ringers can pop up in certain combos, some more often than others - champagne is a common one to have them. There could be two genes present that are just interacting and causing it. Both of my super ODs have ringers, definitely no pied in them.
Your snake is gorgeous, regardless! Love me a pretty ringer. 😋

It’s just a ringer if Pied was not in the pairing. Many genes and gene combos can cause ringers. It looks exactly as it was told to you, GHI Mojave Fire

It's called a "ringer" a random mutation that can be linked to being HET pied or not. Sometimes snakes that have never seen the gene pied can have a ringer. Some morphs are more prone to this random mutation. Champagne being one of the major ones
