Blue Eyed Blonde

We've been getting a a lot of comments about the blue eyed blonde kingsnake which was spoken about in the last post and this is here to clear up any confusion for my extensive audience.

The good people at Split Rock Reptiles puts it this way:
An interesting phase of the ever popular California kingsnake. These animals in their homozygous state exhibit a rare form of hypomelanism. This reduction of melanin turns the chocolate ground color of these Coastal Phase Cal kings to lighter Blond color and also accentuates the lemon yellow banding. As these animals reach adulthood the iris surrounding the pupil of the eye also transforms in a nice shade of midnight blue. Quite a genetic makeover!

So there you have it Catie- the blue eyed blonde you were so worried about.
