Its not as uncommon as you think.......last year here in Miami alone 17 babies and adults changed from regular looking babies to "calico" looking animals. As they grew and shed the grey got darker and turned black to make an overall ugly snake. lol. It is what VPI calls changing balls. They change for some reason...but as they get older they eventually look like normal balls but ont he darker side. My close friend had a het albino female do this.......it looks pretty normal now except for the darkeness of the snake giving it a drab appearance.
