Difference between Silver Queen Ghost and Charcoal Ghost?

I have not yet had my corns long enough to see them grow up into adulthood. I know that with each shed, the snakes are supposed to change more and more to the true colors of their morphs. I was curious what the major differences are, in terms of appearance overall, with the silver queens and charcoal ghosts. Thanks. Pictures would be welcome. I have seen the ones posted by Rich on SerpenCo.
 
I don't have both to make into a comparison pic, but here's my Charcoal Ghost. (Also from SerpenCo)

He's 3 this year. He goes through total "darkness/lightness" cycles with each shed... right after he sheds he is super light, and gets darker until he sheds again. As far as I can tell, he has gotten a bit lighter with each shed.
 
Here's my Charcoal Ghost

I'm like Serpwidgets, got mine from Serpenco. However mine isn't an adult, only a yearling.

Mine seems to get more pinkish/purplish with each shed, and the yellow is definately creeping more down the sides. Exactly what I was looking for, unlike some folks who don't want the aberrant yellow.

At any rate, I can't wait to see what he looks like as a breeding adult. He's growing like a weed, so it shouldn't be too much longer. =P

According to the information on Serpenco...

A Silver Queen Ghost is simply a variation of the Anery "A" ghost. They simply came from some miami phase stock.

A Charcoal Ghost is an Anery "B" Ghost.

Well, I guess that's not what you were looking for. It's 3:30 in the morning, and I simply read your post wrong. I am going to leave the info up, though; just in case someone doesn't know the genetic difference.
 
Well thank you to those of you that replied so far.

Yes, my Charcoal Ghost is from Serpenco as well, and looks identical to your yearling pictures that you posted.

I encourage others to reply as well, so I can get some more good replies =) Thanks.
