I'd like to hear more about this rare morph. I recently aguired a small individual with a good amount of the "marbling" At first I wasn't even aware of this morph, but upon further investigation, found info on it. What I found and was told was this is either a dominant or codominant trait. That, it has been outbred to a few morphs, producing interesting results. The individual I have displays the marbling as a dark purple color. (somewhat like the color on a hypo honduran milk) It appears in several area of the snake.
I'd like to hear from people dealing with this morph and any others with their thoughts.
Thanks in advance.
