Leopard corn snakes

Brace’s Exotics face book page has photos of a group of hatchlings what he calls leopard corn snakes.
Has anyone heard of these, know any history on them?
Thanks
 
I really like the look of them! one of the ones he has posted almost reminds me of twin spot hognose. Have you asked him for more info about them?

I decided to send him a quick message. He said there was a breeder local to him that produces for wholesale and that he is hoping to prove them out with some test breeding. That he has yet to produce good visuals so he's not sure any will be available.
 
I seem to recall the last couple of years they had been brought up several times typically with some controversy. Since the source isn't really known several people were claiming hybrid.
 
I have one that came from a breeder that was local to me at the time.
Pic of when I first got him, and a recent pic.
He was out of a Fire Motley x normal w/ unknown hets.

Thanks for the replies.
I figured I would ask this crew first about them before I checked with him to get some unbiased info. Looks like no one really knows much about them.
 
I've been curious about 'em, but hesitant to jump in. The visuals seem to be highly variable. I usually like a little more more predictability, which is probably why I still have no Miami and only one Okeetee-phase animal. It might be interesting to see how much these could be refined with selective breeding though.
 
Interestingly, I may be getting an adult male one of these on Thursday. I'll get better pictures once he's in hand, but the pictures I got from the original owner are definitely suspicious for being this.
