Butter?

So, I've been talking to this guy from craigslist who wants to sell me one of his corns for $65, which I'm thinking may be a bit steep, possibly. The question is, what morph is he? He seems pretty young and said it was sold to him as a butter, and is more orange towards his head and more yellow lower down. I'm not too familiar with this morph, and the pics are from his cell phone, so I was hoping you guys might have an opinion before I drive all the way out to "look at" the snake. Ha ha.
Thanks so much for looking!

It's alittle tough from the pics but it looks like an amel (red albino) and $65 is not unreasonable for an adult.

Looks a amel to me. Butters don't have orange on them. It's very pretty though and $65 is pretty good for a snake that size.
 
Thanks, you guys. So, you agree that he doesn't look like a butter from the pics? I'm not so particularly fond of butters. But I do already have an adult amel. But what's one more? I'm such a sucker, anyway.

Thanks.

I have both morphs and that "butter" looks like amel in blue. But $65 is right for an adult amel.
 
Well I have a Butter that looks almost exactly the same. . just smaller. . .
Heres a few pics of mine to compare. . . (Mine is a definite Butter)

Hope this helped you, Butters.

Actually, yours is quite a bit different than the above snake in question. The color of your butter's saddles are an orangey-yellow that leans towards the "brown" shades, which is what a butter should be. The above snake in question has saddles that are much more pink/red, which is what an amel would be, especially in blue, which that snake looks to be. It doesn't even look like the yellow-orange I feel "ideal" creamsickles should be.
 
It's definitely not a butter. I would go for creamsicle or perhaps an amel. :)

And I agree, the second snake posted doesn't look anything like the original snake. Snake 2 is DEFINITELY a butter, snake 1 definitely isn't. :)
 
I thought that the camera was just making it look dimmer the first time I looked at it. (considering it's on a phone) But after close examination, you are right.
It does look like it has like an orangesh head/neck.

Well I guess just disregard my other posts. :D

Thank you for clearing that up.
 
Okay, I got a couple more small photos. I don't know if this will help. I hope so. I'm so confused.
