This is a beautiful color and pattern mutation first proved by VPI in 1999. The name "Clown" was inspired by the tear-drop marking that appears under the eye, although not all have this. The long dorsal stripe of background color starts out dark in hatchlings and fades to shades of lighter brown as the snake matures. The side patterns can be very busy with lots of spots, extremely reduced, or somewhere in between.
