Whats this morph?

[Opal Shadow]

I went to a local reptile show this past weekend and couldnt resist picking up something new!
I think the guy said it was a snow motley but im not sure from pics i have seen. Any clue on what it could be? She has this very nice stripe on her and no pattern on her sides. Took pics with and without flash.





Might be female so my husband decided to call her betty white

That is a Snow Motley. A very nice looker too

The motley gene will sometimes throw sections of stripes that can be anywhere from how yours looks to mid section and even towards the tail.

Motleys can have A LOT of variation in their dorsal patterns. Some have a little striping. Often the "striping" are called q-tips due to the fact they often resemble a q-tip. Yours is a VERY long q-tip pattern. The biggest thing is they have a clear belly w/o any checkers, that's always the dead giveaway. Often snakes can have a motley-esque pattern, but have belly checks, or don't have a motley-esque pattern, while being actual motleys.

Also keep in mind that motleys and stripes are just different alleles of the same gene, so sometimes there seems to be a little bleed through between the phenotypes.
