Here is the corrected sentence:

What colour will the python be?

Or in American spelling: What color will the python be?

Short explanation for a 6-year-old:

  • When you ask about the future, put will before the person or thing. So say will before the python.
  • That makes the sentence sound right: "What colour will the python be?"

Other good ways to ask:

  • What colour snake will we get?
  • What colour will our python be?

Note: "colour" is British spelling and "color" is American spelling. Both are correct.
