Appears to be a bloodred (diffused). Here is a link if you dont already have it that can help you with the various morphs: http://iansvivarium.com/morphs/species/elaphe_guttata/

thanks haha you helped me with identifying my first one too, i couldnt remember that link. Even with it though its pretty hard for me since im color blind.

 

[Carpe Serpentis]

Colors are no colors, babies are always adorable. They could be baby feeder mice and you could get attached to them. Another good reason for frozen food. You wouldn't want your snake to starve because you grew attached to its food source ayy:eats02:

Neat. Cute little baby but I was gonna say the same thing Diffused Bloodred. And it's only gonna get prettier!

I'm not 100% sure about the homozygous diffuse part. It looks like there are some small checks along the edge of that belly. The head pattern could simply be the masque gene. I've had a few like that hatch out and I've always hesitated calling them diffuse. Here is a perfect example: http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=124508

I would have to agree. The head, the diffused sides, and the belly all point to bloodred/diffused. I would guess the belly is plainer and whiter further up the snake too.

Informative link, Susan. I was going to say bloodred as well. Sometimes really nice snakes are sold through pet shops! If people only knew the hets in some of the $39.99 ball pythons that have been through my store...
