Just wanted to share the pic because I thought it a neat contrast of two different phases. Her cream use to be a lot more yellow, it has faded.

The male is the normal looking banded (Redding, CA)
The female is non locale weird looking banded, possibly some type of hypo.
I have witnessed the male trying to mate with her, but she has not allowed it. I'm keeping them together except when they eat and a day after they eat, so maybe they have (or will) mate when I'm not watching. Who knows. Well, I guess they know 
But it is a neat pairing because that female has some really weird bands, her belly is almost completely cream, and I think she is hypo because I bought her young and she was very light coloured then - Cal Kings from what I understand tend to start out black and lighten with age unless they are hypo.
Breeding should determine that after a few generations.
But anyway - I haven't seen the male try and mate since I first introduced them. Now when they are together, they are just like the picture shows - coiled up together.
I'll separate them in a week, and if she is not gravid by her next shed, try again after that shed.
