"Yes......
In thayeri Bob Hansen and others (herpetologists) call certain looks morphs.....Tri colored Morph, White morph, orange morphs, yellow morph, etc.......

Visual traits don't all have to be inherited in the Mendelian fashion....Not all are as simple as dominant, co-dominant or recessive......Especially with variable kings like californiae and thayeri....."



Exactly!,....on the same page once again..

Or a normal wild-type cornsnake with all the countless different "looks" (phenotypes) as well. That is something quite a few people don't understand, and that a so-called "morph" doesn't necessarily mean it is a genetically heritable trait.
