 My mystery morph...

This is Sketch. She is at least 2 years old. She is white with no saddles and she has red eyes. She has some yellow on her neck and no checkers on her belly. In the last couple months I’ve started to think she might be a stripe because she looks like she is developing a single light pink stripe down her neck.
I’ve considered blizzard, but lean towards snow. The belly checkers thing stumps me though. Is it possible to have a snow stripe diffusion/bloodred snake?

One breeder we showed her to said he thinks she is has some black or yellow rat genes because of her head shape, if that helps.
Sorry the pics have a yellow tint. My apartment isn’t well lit and I can’t take her outside for pictures because having pets is technically against my lease agreement... :)

I know she is an albino because she is some variation on either snow or blizzard, which is amel + anery or charcoal (respectively.) I was just curious if she is an avalanche stripe (amel+anery+diffusion+stripe) or if that is even possible.

galore: thanks for the input though :)

can anybody guess a weight on her too? She’s a couple inches over 3 feet. I’m getting a scale for Christmas, but I’m really antsy and want to know if she’s hit 300g yet (even though we can’t breed her for a year.)

I think she’s either a blizzard or a striped snow. Hard to tell for sure, though, since they look pretty similar.

Shes a snow stripe, seen so many of them, the yellow hue on hue on her neck. And she she would have a nice white belly yes?

We paid $50 for her, substrate, the tank + lid, and a lamp (which we don’t use- we got an UTH.)
I’d say it was a pretty good deal for such a pretty, good tempered snake. Especially since she was pretty good sized when we got her. We got her from my sister in law who got her from a pet warehouse.

352g is really specific :) It would be funny if you were spot-on! I’ll have her weighed come Christmas.
We want to mate her, but her future lover-boy is still small. He’s only about a year old. We’ll give him another year and see how big he gets.

Do all stripe snakes have a plain white belly?

Yes, Motleys and stripes have a plain belly, no chequers.

I think its more of a striped coral snow because not alot of regular snows have the yellow hue on the neck.

Yes all snows get a yellow hugh on the neck, all get it as they mature into adults. A coral snow if a hypo snow, and they are more pink, no yellow.
