Tri-color and tangerine albinos(or Amelanistic) are lacking black pigment. Tangerines are just orange in the lighter bands, tri-colors are yellow, then there's peach which is kind of a happy medium. Hypomelanistic(did I spell that right?) is lacking some or most of the black pigment. The amount it is lacking is highly variable from extreme hypos to just no tipping in the red bands.Some albinos will tip-out usually in the lighter bands on the ends of there scales. If you've seen a wild one you'll know what I'm talking about.Anyways check out some the breeders websites on here they've got all the info you'll need.
Awesome Snakes!!
