i have no experience but of corse i have an opinion ...
the reason people say this is because they think the females have trouble absorbing heat due to their coloration (obviously need more heat for the babies). i dont see why this would be a problem if the temperatures would be correct. the snake would jsut have to spend more time in the heat since it wouldnt be absorbed as rapid. that is like saying a white car wont get as hot sitting in the sun as a brown car. touch a white car sitting in the sun and youll know that it does absorb heat just as well.
in theory its a good claim but not strong enough in reality to make a difference with proper care which should be provided anyway.
