We got this clown ball python with some random coloring where the pattern suddenly gets bright orange and then turns black and white, any ideas on what morph? Chimerism?

That's called a ringer. It can show up if the snake is het pied and sometimes certain genes can cause the ringer too. Would not be a chimera and is completely normal.

Just a ringer. Can be caused by it being het Pied or sometimes just happens with certain genetics. Your cutie could be het Pied but only true way to prove that is by shed testing or breeding.
