Phantom of the snakes!!!

No. A phantom is a hypo charcoal, just as a 'ghost' is a hypo anery. A hypo charcoal bloodred is a hypo pewter, as a pewter is a charcoal bloodred.
 
This is what I found on the VMS herp website. so Its not a phantom but a phantom bloodred
Phantom Bloodred Cornsnake
Homozygous for Hypomelanism, Charcoal and Diffusion/Bloodred. aka Hypo Pewter. This triple recessive animal is an almost solid pale pinkish gray in color, with only traces of pattern present. Due to the Bloodred genetics, there is no ventral pattern (Plain-Belly).
 
I'm pretty sure the OP knew it was diffused since both parents are homo diffused. I don't see why you couldn't call it a phantom bloodred, but do think they're more often referred to as hypo pewters. Anyways, great first pippy! my 2-matching-hets pair didn't do a real great job of matching up those hets this year and I got 15 out of 19 with only the phenotype of the parents! looks like you might be doing a bit better.
 
:p just so long as that bloodred word is in there in some form or fashion. It's mean to call that beauty "just" a charcoal or "just" a phantom!
 
I hatched out a couple of Hypo Bloodreds too, but the picture I have is bad. I'm going to try and take some this weekend of most of the hatchlings.
