Well, it's not nearly as common as just the pure white form of leucism, but orange and yellow are part of their natural color sceme, and these colors do tend to pop up now and then in some specimens.



There are many other variable forms of leucism that display a weird array of colorful spotting and patches(calico) of color as well, but not necessarily in just Texas Rats, but other types of snakes too.
