Looks a *lot* like a nice creamsicle to me!

Amel cornsnakes tend to be more red on the saddles, unless they're butters, in which case they're yellow; this guy looks very orangy, which says creamsicle to me.
 
Still, is it possible this snake is in blue?
Also, is the snake adult, if so, how big is he? (Might help with the cream debate)

If the snake is in blue, I would say amel. It may be the lighting in the pics too, sometimes my amel comes up looking like this in photos....Hmmmm...Im a bit torn on this one.
 
Well he is done shedding now and honestly dosnt look much diffrent at all. He's a perfect tangerine orange and theres pics of the red pigmentation on him. He's around 3 and a half feet long and 3 years old.
 
Ya I read somewhere that he might be an amel missing some pigmentation. I posted the site in one of my previous posts. Does that make any sense?

It's possible, I mean alot of snakes lose their color once they get older. If you look at baby anerys and adults you'd know what I mean.

All amels are missing brown/black pigment, thats what makes them a amel. If they had the black pigment then they would be a normal.

He looks alot like my creamsicle as far as color goes but there is no way of knowing for sure if he is a cream or a regular amel. I'd probably call him a cream just to be on the safe side. Remember that a creamsicle is a amel, just with emory blood.

This is my cream, notice he has no red, only orange.

Here is a pic of Niblet in blue, notice he is very orange even in blue... this is why I said Creamsicle... my Amel is just a hatchling so the colors will be different, but you can see the difference side by side....

Yeah after reading the last two posts with the pics I think that he's a cream because he is very orange even when he's about to shed. I guess Ill know for sure when I mate him. (He might in fact be a she) As for length he's actually an inch over 4feet (Couldn't believe it!)
