Leche Morph

Hello! In honor of the upcoming holidays, I've chosen to show you a light colored snake that reminds me of snow! This week I am talking about the

The Leche Morph
 
 
This is a two-gene designer morph that is characterized by a white or silver snake with tan markings along the spine with the normal side markings being a lighter color. The Leche Morph is a mix of two co-dom genes, the Phantom and the Mocha morphs. Both of these morphs have very high contrast in their markings. The dark parts are darker and the light markings tend to be a much lighter brown.

There seems to be a trend for dark colored ball python single gene animals to create light colored or white snakes, like the BEL complex or the Leche Morph.
