I am 100% percent sure that's a hybrid. The white is too wide, the shape of the red is "wrong" and the head pattern is waaayyy off, looking more like a thayeri or alterna. The mix could contain pyro, mex mex, thayeri, greeri and/or alterna. Maybe more...

But it is an exceptionally pretty snake and personally I see nothing wrong with breeding it as long as you label the offspring as hybrids.
