Stripe h Cr, Hy... What is Cr?

I should have asked the breeder at the last reptile show here in Denver. But I was just so happy that I won the snake I wanted from the raffle. I won a stripe h Cr, Hy according to the label. I don't recall the breeder's name, but will know her if she's at the show next month.

So far, I know this:

Popped as a male
Stripe = normal that is striped
h = het for
hy = hypo
cr = caramel OR charcoal OR cinder

so in total: Normal stripe het for hypo and....

If you were the breeder, which would you use the abbreviation "cr" for?

Usually CR is Caramel, CH for Charcoal...

That's what I was thinking. Thanks.

Someone on iHerp said this little guy looked cubed. What do you think?

I wish I had my phone card in my computer right now so I can show more pictures. Shouldn't the breeder have labeled him cubed instead of striped? Or is cubing caused by the stripe gene?

Yes, cubed is a stripe.

That was my comment on iHerp. Cubed is related to stripe and shows up randomly in babies from stripe pairings. The cubing can be enhanced through selective breeding to produce sunspots. Thats my goal.

I personally use CA for Caramel, CH for Charcoal, CS for Coral Snow. I don't have a CR for anything, so can't give any insight into that. CR for het Crimson would be embarrassing for the breeder considering Crimson is a Hypo Miami.
