I am not saying this isn't true, but I will say that if it is, Orange Ghost cannot be a recessive trait. Recessive by definition means that it will not show up in its het form. Codom traits show up because they are codominant. The homozygous form is the super form (super-pastel etc.)

If your snake is not wild-type I have to assume it's an orange ghost, not a het orange ghost.

If I'm wrong someone please educate me because I would love to learn something new. The writing on the subject doesn't leave much breathing room though.
