I believe the Southern, Mexican and Western are all similar. The Eastern is the only one in its genus. Then there is the Tri-color, which is my personal favorite. I dearly love my WC rescue Eastern, but I was not successful at getting her to switch, so we are at a standoff for the moment. Jenea (Floridahogs) is successful at getting Easterns to switch. Another South American tri-color, which is closer in appearance to the Western group, but very brightly colored with red, too, is the dorbignyi, which is now being CB in limited quantities, but is still more expensive than the high-end Western color morphs. But if money were no object, I'd be getting one of those as my next snake over anything else. You should look into the Lystrophus tri-colors- they are very interesting snakes and tend to be voracious feeders. But there are CB baby Easterns out there, too.
