Snake of the Day 11-21-17

Show & Tell

Aside from having uncommonly contiguous linear striping this 2016 Striped Bloodred shows some lateral scales of varying shades of red.  This is surely because both parents were het for the Pied-sided gene mutation.  Hence, this snake COULD be a Pied-sided (aka: P/S) Bloodred that is not exhibiting any white?  I only held onto this one for the good striping so I don’t care of it is a P/S mutant or not.
