anomoly. However, it is less likely that three babies happened to have the genes from both of their parents mutate to cause Anerythrism.

It is much more likely that one snake had a random mutation (one allele for Anery, making it a het). This is then passed on as previously described.

Hets usually are the anomoly, and the homozygous form occurs by a coincidental match between two heterozygous animals.

Either way both senerios are theory, I however tend to lead toward this thought.
