I need some information. The general concensus below is that this is a vanishing patterned corn snake. Genentically speaking, how's this gonna work?

The dad was an amel striped, the mom was a motley ghost. I got a few like the dad (so mom is het for dad's patterns and colors) a few like the mom (so dad is het for mom's patterns and colors) and this odd vanishing patterned corn snake. I still have the mom and dad. Actually, dad is giong through an antibotic injection treatment for an infection. Ever try injecting a corn snake? Not fun. Anyway, if I was to breed the vanishing corn snake (wow, that sounds Harry Potterish) back to the dad, what would I get?

Here's another picture of the girl. She's my enigma. I should rename her from Craven to E. Nigma, like in Batman Forever (I watch too many movies).

Thanks in advance for any help!

Since your corn came from a motley/stripe breeding, the best way to make more vanishing patterns is to selectively breed it to a corn with very little pattern. If you breed it back to a motley or stripe, you get some patterned corns, some vanishing, and a lot of "in between."

Breed it back to the dad and get wierd stuff? Or should I have kept more siblings?

Is there such thing as a patternless cornsnake?

There are no true patternless corns, only vanishing pattern.... But that is a question for a more experienced person.
