Cool. What morph is it?

I can't tell for sure, but it looks like it has black eyes. Is that what makes it a paradox, or is it something else?

its hard to see, but there are black markings on the snake.
Red albinos should not produce black. That is what makes them a paradox

thanks, here is another pic. This is day 1. Looking forward to first shed.

Awesome look. You should definitely post more pictures after the first shed. Thanks for sharing.

To me, it looks like it might be an ultramel? Any chance of that?

not to me but i am really not into a lot of these morphs and do not like to micro describe each and every snake i produce so I am not a "morph" expert. Having said that, i can also say that i do produce a good number of corns each year and this is one of those that just "jumps out at you" when you open the box. Also i do not own an "ultramel". I really believe it to be a paradox and emailed pics to a guy who is very well known and has always shot straight with me. I will not mention his name but will say that he emailed me back that it was unquestionably a paradox.

I will wait and see what it looks like after its first and second sheds but am fairly confident that it is in fact a paradox. I never mess with babies too much until after they have shed and eaten but after that i will get some better pics.

By the way, the mother is an okeetee het amel and the father is an aztek okeetee het amel. This is the 3rd year breeding for both of them but never to each other. There were 16 eggs, 12 normal, 3 amel and then this baby.

thanks, don
