First let me address this hybrid. Of course the snake has orange, we can see that. However, if you are going to put it next to a burmese for comparison, don't use a granite burmese or other morph - use a normally pattered burmese amel so we can actually see. The morph you have put next to the hybrid has a totally different pattern and therefore can't be used for comparison. You also state that burmese 'tend to fade out to a light yellow' - well, what do the rock/burm hybrid amels 'fade out' to? Do you have an adult to know? Before you make a comparison of adult phases, perhaps you should only be comparing animals of similar sizes. What if your hatchlings 'fade out' to a light yellow or a light brown?
Secondly, I've been watching your posts for a while now and I have noticed a few things. 1) Very rarely do you respond to someone else's topic. 2) Nearly all of your posts are threads started by you and referencing your animals. That is fine, but it seems like we have seen enough pictures of this animal and there have been enough posts of '5% more orange.' It seems to me that you are using the forum as a form of advertising. Furthermore, your posts always seem to be littered with terms like 'investment quality,' 'cutting edge,' 'next big thing in morphs,' etc. How about just a little more humility here? It is fine to post pics of new hatchlings that you have that might be interesting to see, but to continue to post the same animals/pics over and over is simply advertisement. 3) It seems like you mostly reply to a post when someone gives a compliment. Once a criticism is raised you disappear and the post dies. I'm not making a personal attack here, but it seems like you are abusing the forum to make it more about marketing and less about information.
