What's a morph? Think of it as a horse coat, or dog coat. It's basically the pattern or color of a ball python. There are MANY morphs. Some of the more popular ones I shall list below:

Pastel- Typical python pattern, brighter than the "Normal" morph

Albino- yellow and white, with red eyes

Spider- tan brown color with black stripes zigzagging- Some have wobbles, which aren't very pleasant for the poor snake

Pinstripes- somewhat similar to the spider, same tan brown, but the black lines are different- wobbles aren't known to affect this morph like the spider, though they do look similar

Bumblebees-Yellow and black, a special sub morph of the spider, so wobble could be possible

What's a wobble?

This video is by GoHerping, I did not have anything to do with creating his video, it is 100% his, one of my favorite reptile YouTubers, he quite knows his stuff, he basically just explains the whole Spider situation:

But basically a wobble is a neurological condition, that causes the snake to wobble, and jerk it's head up, down, and side to side uncontrollably, and can even cause them to bite themselves. So if you don't want to see that, then stay away from Spider ball pythons, and Spider sub morphs. 

There are many more morphs, but these are just a few popular ones I see a lot. I will be making a chapter later on about unique morphs.
