Corn snake morph identification?

[Kaetlinv]

This is my older brother's corn snake - she's about a year and a half old now I believe. My brother said he'd looked into her morph and found out that she was a 'Sunkissed orange'. I just looked up photos of said morph and they look nothing like her.

She's a beautiful snake no matter her morph, but I've been itching to know what people think she is. Her name is Trixie :)

Very young shot of her - the pink has turned a vivid flame orange.

Generally, she's orange with white saddles that turn to orange saddles about 2/3 down her back. If my brother wasn't so possessive I would hold her and take some pictures but she's his snake and unless I'm bringing her to him so he can feed her I hardly get to hold her.

Looks like an albino to me

[Kaetlinv]

that's what I'd been thinking when I was looking up some pictures. She's got bright red eyes like albinos of most species do.

Maybe a reverse okeetee?

[Kaetlinv]

no checkers on her belly - my friend has a plain okeetee.

No black to be heard of and her belly is totally spotless.

[Kaetlinv]

Just looked up a different morph - I thought my brother had told me 'sunkissed orange' which looks nothing like her. Now he's saying she is a 'sunkissed dreamsicle' >.>

[snake man12]

I say amelanistic or albino.

[Kaetlinv]

-sighs- this is why I wish he would let me hold her - talking with him (live in the same house) and he says she DOES have light orange on her belly, he took a look at the reverse Okeetee and says that looks like her. We'll be getting her out in a bit and doing more research...

He doesn't think she's albino because of her eyes - they're not a deep red, just a pale orange-red color.

Thanks all for your input so far, I didn't think what he told me she was sounded right. >.>

Looks like an amel to me. Hard to tell in those pics if it is a reverse okeetee or not but I think not as the bands don't look thick enough.

[Kaetlinv]

She's got light orange checkers on her stomach - I'll post some pictures in a moment

Yep, definitely an Amelanistic or amel for short (think they may be known as albino in the states?)

[snake man12]

Ehh amel and albino are fine.

[Aleks]

last picture show's it good its Amel

[exwizard]

last picture show's it good its Amel

I agree, the last pic looks like an Amel albeit a much lighter shade of Amel than I've seen.

[Kaetlinv]

Shes pretty. Thats what we knew. Haha. He got her for the standard petshop price. Cant remember where he got her

[rmfsnakes32]

Its amel for sure

[Snakefood]

she is a beautiful Amelenalistic!!!!

[Shmoges]

Maybe a reverse okeetee?

The boarders aren't wide enough its a amel imo.

This is a reverse okeetee

That one looks just like her honestly. If i didnt know better id say youd stolen my brothers snake, haha. We're pretty convinced she is an okeetee....the picture of her belly doesnt show it very well, but she has very blatant orange checkers all up and down the sides of her belly scales

[Jlassiter]

No...yours is an amel not a reverse Okeetee.
Okeetee isn't really a morph it is a locale.
At the Okeetee Hunt Club thick bordered corns were found.
Now the term gets misused because one shouldn't really call there hobby corns locality specific unless they can trace the animal's provenance.

Amelanistic means total lack of melanin (black).
The area where the black was is replaced by no pigment (white).

To reiterate, you have an amel corn snake....nice one too.

[Snakefood]

Amels have orange belly checks too. She looks just like both Amels I have had, pretty sure thats what she is
