Baby snakes, can you confirm morphs?

Hello all. I'm a newcomer here, and have been raising corns since 11/02. This site has been a tremendous resource, thanks! Now I'm hoping you can help me out.

Here's some pics of '03 babies I've owned for a few months. The light brown/yellow one was sold to me as an amber, and she's definitely getting more yellow with each shed. I want to make sure people think she's amber and not caramel, as a local breeder thought she might be the latter.

The other 2 were sold as "milk phase" but I haven't seen much on that morph, he said they look like miami phase as adults? They're jumpy but getting better, voracious feeders, and saddles are becoming brighter red, background a little more silvery-brown with each shed.

Thanks!

hi there~
nice looking corn snakes.

IMHO
I think that the 'milk snake' phase is just a normal looking miami. But then the 'milk snake' phase that Rich were selling out came from Miami lines. In order to be called a 'milk snake' phase, they would have to kind of have 'banded' looks on it.

Here is are my milk snake phases from Rich.

As for the other corn snake. I would say that it does look like an amber. But then as always looks doesn't prove to be too much help...proving it out (by breeding) would be the most efficent way to prove if it's an amber or caramel. But IMHO I think that yours looks like an amber more than just a caramel.)

Here are some of the caramel and ambers that I have

Caramel

So what you're telling me ...

... is that I need a male amber snake to breed my amber girl with? Are there any other interesting combinations I can get with her? I also own a beautiful Charcoal boy and Hypomel boy.
