visual difference ghost VS lavender

newmann Sep 04, 2009 11:49 AM

Please help I have asked many breeders and looked at many babies.
I have a pair of motleys that were bought as lavender, the babies are pink/purple/gray toned. I thought all lavenders are born mocha colored. That's what two of my corn snake books say. I keep seeing babies called lavender that are purpley gray at birth. How do I tell the difference?
Please advise
