Condescending much? You give the impression you think we are stupid here, I have plenty of first hand information on the desert gene, many of us here do. I do know that dessert has a visual heterozygous form, which your flash washed hand photo doesn't look like one at all. So stop talking like we are stupid when you are the one with conflicting information or at the very least explain yourself in a way that makes sense with the current conversation. Also, if what you say is true, shouldn't you be sharing your first hand information or do you continue to beat around the bush in jumbled words and unsupported claims.
I'm also sorry you think so little of a snake just because it is "one of many"
