One spot of orange on a Snow Corn Snake

If you look directly in the center of the picture, you will notice (Or not, sorry for bad picture quality) a redish/orange spot on the snake's back. I have noticed it gets a little deeper in color each time he sheds. We are very sure that this is a color spot and not an injury or mites as the spot has not moved in months and we find no evidence of mites or anything like that. Is it common for light colored snakes to put out spots like this? We think it adds character! :)
 
Not really common, but it does happen that snakes will have one or more scales that are the "wrong" color for that particular morph. If you do a search using the term "paradox" you will probably find some good photo examples. I agree it adds character.
 
I just did the search and I see what you mean. I hope it does not fade as he gets older as some people said!
