They usually appear unicolored during the day once they are around 3 feet. But they also usually show their pattern at night or right after they shed.
I had a male that I picked out of a litter in 1994 because he was the lightest colored individual. By the time he was 5 feet (and very massive) you could barely see any pattern on him.
But at night or after a shed he would turn a pale pinkish-brown with silvery-lavender on his sides and you could easily see all of his juvenile pattern.
I gave him to a friend last year but I would say that most of mine have done this.
