    Calico morph?

    Hello - not planning on getting another snake anytime soon but I had a question about a Western rat snake morph called Calico.

    I can see some babies on MM with this sort of overall whitish coloration:



    and a google search shows these adults listed as Pantherophis obsoletus with the calico morph:






    I can't find any place that confirms this but do these snakes start out white and gradually fill in with red, black, and yellow speckles over time? Because that's amazing! If anyone has one I'd love to hear about it. I also see some hatchlings listed as "Calico cow suckers" but I don't know if this is the same species/morph as the western rat.
