Help figuring out what my corn snake is?

Forgive my ignorance in this matter but I don't know a lot about the different morphs of corn snakes (I don't even know if I'm saying that right). I looked up extensively how to care for my corn snake but now I'd like to know what exactly she is. I remember the man who sold her to me said she was a striped something something albino? I know not very specific. I'll put pictures up but he said she had the genes to make other albino corn snakes. Could someone explain this to me a little more thoroughly? And maybe you can tell from the pictures what exactly she is.

Looks like a "Butter stripe" Corn. Care is exactly the same as any other corn.

Here is a nice guide to help with different morphs.

All About Corn Snakes

The above link has lots of pictures and explains how they are bred to get morphs.

Re: Help figuring out what my corn snake is?

I'm not an expert by any means, but my opinion, judging by the washed out appearance of the photos. Is that it is an amelanistic stripe. The eye in the first photo, looks like it is red. Just my opinion, don't jump on me if you disagree.

Re: Help figuring out what my corn snake is?

It IS a Butter & looks like Striped with the potential of some Motley mixed in depending on how broken up the striping is.
Both genes are often combined & visual in the same clutches.
One can breed a Motley to a Stripe & get both & combos of both as well.
That said Butter IS Albino & Caramel or should I say Butter IS Caramel Albino.
Can't tell the pattern that great form the pics but I'd say it is a Motley Striped Butter as it appears broken. Mark
