Aberrant???
Ok I've been seeing this everywhere but have no idea what it means. Would anyone mind explaining what they are referring to when they label a snake "Aberrant"?

could it be used on any morph? I mean because technically cant any morph that isnt normal be considered aberrant, or is it mostly saved for reffering to normals with an "aberrant" pattern |

I would think mostly the second option you mention but I guess it could be used in any number of ways.

It means irregular pattern shapes. Instead of uniform nice saddles, they look melted. This doesn't mean that any boa with an odd looking saddle is abberant. It would need to be something very noticable and beyond the norm for shape variances.

Oh ok so you could have an Aberrant anything its just an additional description of the snakes patter aside from it being norm or whatever morph it may be. For ex "Beautiful Aberrant normal male" Or Gorgeous Aberrant hypo" etc... |

I've also seen an Abberant "Lucistic" Western Diamondback. It was really wierd! you've got the Lucistic traits, with an abberant pattern.

All white snake usually with blue or black eyes. Here's a pic of a leucistic ball python.
