What Would You Call This?

I recently acquired this snake. From a distance I only had a view of its dorsal side and I thought it was a Rainbow Boa but as I got closer I could see the white/black underbelly of its upper half and I knew it was a Corn. The lower half of the underbelly is orange/black. It’s clearly not a Normal. Okeetee’s have full saddles don’t they? The black borders of this snake's lower saddles are so thick that they merge together and appear as black rectangles. Do the Abott’s look like this? I appreciate any input.

Very handsome Oketee. Looks to be easy to handle, as well. Nice pickup!

I had also thought Okeetee, but after seeing hundreds of Okeetee's at expos and photos online I don't recall seeing borders merge and closing up the saddles which is how the saddles appear on the lower 1/3 of this snake. I do realize that there are variations amongst the morph, and that there are differences between WC corns from the Okeetee Hunt Club and CBB of several generations. But I still felt that this one appeared too aberrant to be classified as such.

Anyhow I trust your judgement, thanks for the feedback.

Is it normal for uploaded photos to not appear with accompanying text? At 11:01am I posted the 1st message of this thread, which included text + photos. But as of 11:10am the photos still had not appeared. Now I see that the photos are there in the 1st text; I am trying to figure out how to delete posts #2 to #8.
 
I always like to use the 'preview post' button to check that my photos are there and not too big. Did you attach your photos through this site or did you upload them elsewhere and use the
