newbie question

Here are pics of our snakes (2 of the 3), we would like to know what kind of babies they may have. Do not know what the parents of these two are. There is a pic of the females vent, wondering if it is normal for the vent to be open. we believe she is pregnant and a few weeks along(if our beliefs are correct). We had the female snow and got the male okatee about about a month after we got the female. We have noticed them attaching about 5 times. Can someone who nows more about this help!

The vent looks normal. Your Oketee is an amel. Not Oketee. The babies will be amel het for anery.

Plus any other hets we don’t know about.
 
Here are some pictures that may help with my next question. On the female we noticed three sections of her body that has these markings. It looks like a mouse may have bit her while she was feeding, but her last feeding was a furry ( due to her being pregnant ) and the feeding before that she regurgitated a full mouse. Should we worry about this or not?

Pet store we got it from said it was an okatee. And his main body color is light yellow, with alittle darker yellow and burnt orange with white outlines. He looks more like a light colored reverse okatee.
 
I can't tell what the mark is but it doesn't look worrysome. It will most likely come off with the next shed. If you haven't read about it yet, it is good advice to not feed live mice to your snakes.
 
Oketee is defined by the broad black margins around the saddles. An oketee would also have black and white checkers on it's bellly.

Ok thank you, both of these snakes have yellow and white checkers on there bottom. Is there a "name" for that design?
Our other snake is an okatee (black and white checkers) but does the body color make a difference?

Heres some pics.

We are basically trying to figure out what kind of snakes we have for future reference.
