These 2 snakes were caught within 100 feet of one another in in Boone Cty, KY.
One is "normal" although pretty for the region (the eastern milks tend to be dark in N KY)
Anyway...you see the differences here...I think I may have scored a hypo!
BTW, both snakes are freshly shed, and Boone is not even CLOSE to syspila country. This are certainly both 100% triangulum. They are much too large to be hatchlings, probably yearlings.
Thoughts?

Both are females, unfortunately! Notice the lack of pigment on her nose...
