if it is hypo and motley and emoryi/corn mix then it would be a motley cinnamon
Cinnamon is basically the trade name for hypo "rootbeers"

a couple of my cinnamons

Obviously cinnamon is not set in stone and may not even be the best descriptive of the morph but it is catching on and is being used when speaking of emoryi/corn crosses expressing hypomelanism.
Same as Creamsicle being used to denote emory/corn crosses expressing amelanism
and the "normal" offspring of emoryi/corn being called rootbeers.

I use emoryi only because up until now there really hasn't been a distinction made between emoryi/corn crosses, intermontana/corn crosses and meahllmorun/corn crosses.

One thing I failed to mention above...that is a beautiful snake.
Motley is my favorite pattern anomoly and cinnamons are one of my favorite morphs so when you put it together and get a beautiful cinnamon motley like that it is hard to beat.

here are a few pictures of a A&W, my new rootbeer (meahllmorun/corn) het for hypo which I will be using to infuse more "non-corn" into my cinnamon lines.

Yeah...I just used Rootbeer because you don't hear it much...kinda catchy lol. Actually, he was sold to me by a respectable breeder as a hypo Rootbeer and comes from the
(E. g. meahllmorum) cross.

I didn't mean to imply you or the breeder were wrong.
hypo rootbeer works just as well.
sorry
and either way it is still a beauty.
I have a couple of motley cinnamon hatchlings I will try to get pictures of and post tomorrow.

Oh no...I didn't take it that way. Hey, do your Cinnamons fade with age? My guy seems to have gotten a little more vibrant...just wondering what to expect. Planning to pair him up with a nice ghost I have. Sound like a good plan to you?

I think they get more vibrant with age,too.
At least the first few years until they reach their adult coloration.
