Ok folk, it's not a trick question, it's a hatchling which cost £@@. Take a guess at the morph, and the morph it was sold as, then give me your opinion on price (pet shop price only). Here's the snake at approx 5-6 weeks old

I guess its a caramel, but as the photo isnt too good (sorry) it may be ghost.
If caramel I guess £60-80 from a pet shop.
I have no idea what it could have been sold as.

I still think caramel, from the pic it looks like it has a lot of yellow in the background colour and brown saddles which would mean its caramel. Maybe an Amber but they are usually quite a bit lighter than caramels. Please dont say it was sold as a classic for £20 Is it yours John?

No it's my new lady's little girls (well, she's 12).
It was sold as a "normal" for £55. Miles over the top for a normal imho, but the first thing i thought was ghost or caramel and really just others opinions as i havn't seen any in the flesh, just pic's.

Im 100% sure its not a normal.
First pic I thought possibly ghost but the background makes me think caramel. IMO much to yellow/brown for a ghost, but as you know they change so much that its often hard to tell at such a young age.
It looks very much like the caramels I have seen and also photos of them. I would say 95% sure its caramel (the last 5% takes into account the lighting in the pic).
Possibly ghost but i think most likely not.

Typical, mine gets sold to me as a caramel, but still hasn't shown signs of any yellow, yours gets sold as a normal and looks to me to be a caramel.

Caramel it is then.
I just couldn't make up my mind not having seen a caramel or ghost hatchling before in the flesh.
Thanks All

Hmmm ... looks almost exactly like Hashie did when she was a tiny little thing. Beautiful snake nonetheless. I wouldn't even guess at a morph at this point. Could you update pics every so often so we can see the coloration coming in?

Yeah i'll pos a few more in a couple of weeks after the next shed, he's a greedy little fellow, i'm sure he'd eat every other day if we offered it to him (every 4-5 at the min), lol.
