Bloodred Stripe

see here is the thing that is confusing to me, that snake looks to me like a motley het stripe. because the line seems a bit chopped up and the bridge at the neck....but I could be completely wrong.
and then yes you get the whole confusing thing with bloodred and diffused.

I think if the person who BRED the snake sold her as a bloodred stripe, AND she came from two bloodreds, then she's a bloodred. You can't prove it by her belly scales, though. In her case. If she's second-hand, or the breeder had either one or both parents only heterozygous for bloodred, then I think it's more likely someone made a mistake.

thats the other issue I have, the guy I got it from is a breeder, but he mostly breeds ball pythons. he got this snake from someone else in a package deal with some ball pythons.
So its kinda hard to trace (but I couldn't say no for $25)
 
I have no doubt that snake is stripe x stripe. The stripe is so wide. I would have never questioned it.

All bloodreds are diffused. All diffuseds are not bloodred.
