Hi all! I purchased my first snake (I was actually terrified of them until I was convinced to hold this one at the pet store) in July. He was labeled banana along with what appears to be a true banana in the same enclosure, however he looks quite different. His coloring is different (paler, no orange, yellow is muted, no purple), he has perhaps 3-4 freckles on his whole body and he has a lighter cream colored dorsal stripe. Any ideas as to what else may be mixed in? I’d be grateful for any insight!

Here are a few links. I added images earlier, but every time I submit, I get an error and have to start the post over

I took these this morning after his shed last night Contrast looks a little weird for the two where he’s on the floor, but they are all in natural light.

These are from the pet store. The first shows his pattern pretty well and the other two show him next to the banana he was enclosed with.
