Snake skins is fine by itself. I wouldn't do it, beause snakes alreayd get all the vitamins they need from rodents, and if they get too much calcium, it can cause damage. Plus . . . I don't know how good an entire human vitamin would be for a snake.
But I'm sure someone with more experience will come by and elaborate on it.
Personally, I think the best thing for a snake's skin would be keeping the humidity correct and watching their sheds to make sure they're complete.
Reptile skin is so varied, that it's hard to say if color "should" go lighter-darker. I have a snake with a lot of blushing along its back (blushing being lighter color on the dark/background color that doesn't really count as pattern, per se).
I think you can see some blushing on this pic (along the spine), but I'm not positive. Is that what you're talking about?
