Take the pic again under normal lighting. We'll try to help.
But honestly, if it was sold to you as Normal, 99.% of the time that's exactly what it is.

Need more angles maybe? belly shot? Use white light (fluorescent bulbs) or sun light for pics

What are you asking, specifically?
Are you asking if it is "a morph", of if there is something wrong?
It looks pretty thin, and kind of dry (maybe a some retained shed? hard to tell on this monitor). There is something that looks like it might be a small bump on the spine in the second pic, but that could be shadow, skin, or something funky on this screen...it gave me a headache trying to decide if was anything.
If you're asking if it is a morph, I defer to the BP people.

It is a normal. There is granite speckling on the sides, but this doesn't indicate genetic granite (it could be just the pattern of this particular bp).

I agree with Harald (no surprise) the animal is a bit thin..what is it eating?When's the last time it ate?

I also see the bump at the base of the tail, any idea what caused it?

The first pic looks as if it were a hatchling, but the last pic seems like it's an older snake (yearling).

How long have you had it, what does the tank look like?

I am just trying to help. It could be the lighting that makes the snake look starved and dried out. Embarassed
