What exactly is this? O_o

Soooooo...


I went into world of pets to get a young snake I thought was a creamsicle. However on the tank it said Ultramel, even though last week he said something about a creamsicle lol. I know creamsicles have emory rats in their lines somewhere but curtis said he wasn't sure if the breeder had bred with emory's.

I love the snake no matter what it is...but its still neat to know. I am limmited in knowledge when it comes to genetics and I am just waiting for next payday to get two books from Kathy Love's site.

Here are some pics...tell me what you guys think! =D
(sorry for the bad quality, I didn't want to handle him to stress him, he seems high strung)

Also, he has no name yet, or sex for that matter, not sure lol. I'll have to get "it" probed before I make breeding plans. I have lots of time for that lol.
 
I have bumped him to feeding every five days. The pet shop owner had him on ever seven and he is still quite young yet. I can feel his spine a little.

Mouth, eyes, scales etc all seem fine though. So does his leavings lol.
 
It looks almost identical to my creamsicle, so I'm going to say cream. I've only seem pics of ultramels but that doesn't look like one.
Its a very pretty snake, I love the creams even if they are considered "inferior" to some:)
 
Woot! Thanks so much for the replies everyone! I am glad he/she is a cream. I am still not sure what ultramel is but I will eventually learn! =D

Now I need to think up a name. There was a joke in the chat room about me getting a cream and naming it Cheese Puff!
 
Not an Ultramel, and most likely(depending on genetics) a GORGEOUS Creamsicle!!!! Wow! He is absolutely a fantastic specimen! Im jealous :D :D
What a cool pick up, I can see why you were so excited now!
