Should I expect my grey-banded to have bands?

Hi,

Bought a very young "Grey banded Kingsnake" from a local reptile show. The seller didn't have much information, because apparently he had bought it off a different breeder. They're very rare to come by where I am, and I've wanted one for a while because I love the grey/orange colorations of them.

Now, however, comparing my Greybanded to other juvies, they seem to have their bands AT birth. As you can see from the pictures, mine is completely slate colored with some tiny inclusions of orange just above the scutes.

Should I expect to have a true greybanded or will I just end up with a slate colored snake?
