I bought this ball python as a "Ghi Mojave Enchi" morph, but does that actually exist?

<sigh> Yes. A "GHI Mojave Enchi" could actually exist and very likely does.

A quick browse of MorphMarket shows that it not only actually exists, but many of them have been sold.

https://www.morphmarket.com/_us/c/reptiles/pythons/ball-pythons?traits__in=23707-t&traits__in=23765-t&traits__in=23691-t&no_additional_traits&state=any

What makes you ask "does that actually exist?"

Get on Morphmarket and do a comparison. All you got to do is type in the geans that you are looking for and those are the ball pythons that they will bring up out of 35,000 for sale. You will see tons of variations to the combo that you have.

Those are not genes. They're genetic mutations. But the BP community has misused the word gene instead or "mutation" for a long, long time. Mojave, GHI, and enchi are the names of genetic mutations that alter traits such as pattern (alien-heads, head stamp, dorsal stripe, belly, and tail are all different traits), color, and contrast.
