Quick Question

When some one says high white or high yellow talking about a snake, what are the referring to?

[RAD House]

I see it most commonly used with piebald snakes and it refers to the percentage of white the animal shows to that of normal coloring. I.e. a piebald snake that is mostly white with a little color is a high white animal.

When it's not referring to piebald animals, it just means that the animal has a lot of white/yellow compared to a normal variety.
A normal 50/50 california kingsnake:


And a high white:


A more extreme high white(which also has an aberrant pattern):


Not my pictures, by the way.

You can also have animals that are high black, high red, etc.
