But from a hobbiest standpoint (in order that we can differentiate between the different recessive traits) these are just names we use. Our job as humans since the beginning of time was to name the animals. So is it perfect science?. No!

In Bechtel book he has a trocolors pictured which he label as "axanthic", why? Because it is mostly a red animal!

So for hobbiest to differentiate we aplly axanthic to a particular ook of the recessive trait. That being a bluish snake is called axanthic. Those with not solid black eyes and lighter cream color (like the hognose) is anery.
