I too have a red phase, and a red/blonde phase...

Unfortunately, it is not a true color morph, or even a trait. You get the red color by breeding red-ish normals, and then breeding best colors of their offspring and so on and so forth. If you breed a red with a normal, you will probably only end up with slightly redder offspring...just a bunch of nice looking normals...

If you were to breed the red with a red/blonde though, the babies would be MUCH nicer looking and worth a fair price more.

This is the only exception (that I'm aware of) to the red color as a trait: http://extremehogs.com/ExtremeRed.html and those snakes are albino.
