IN OVER MY HEAD ;)
My fiance decided to give breeding his Ball Pythons a chance this year. We bred his Mohave male to a normal female. He never saw the two snakes hook up so he exchanged the Mohave with an older bigger normal male. After waiting months for eggs he had given up. One day while doing water checks he noticed her laying on top of something. He picked her up and there were three terribly dehydrated eggs. I took them and incubated them using moss as my subtrate since that is all I had. I put a moist paper towel on top of them hoping to rehydrate them. They still looked bad and one had started to die. So I did more research on incubating them and put cling wrap over the tub hoping to keep more moisture in. I truly didn't think that they were going to make it. They never plumped up at all. Some how just under sixty day and these two gorgeous babies appeared. :D I was sooo excited.

The eggs they came out of... They were not much plumper with the snakes in them. :(

That's no normal... that is a beautiful Mojave!! :) The other one is stunningly light, so perhaps that's why you think he/she is normal - but I can pretty much guarantee it's not. I bred my first clutch this year too, and it also happened to be Mojave x normal. My odds weren't so good, though, with 5 normals and 1 Mojo. Oh well!
 
Thanks for letting me know. My Fiance thinks it's a normal but I was hoping it was a Mohave. :)
 
If he needs more proof, here's one of my normals & the mojo for comparison purposes...
