What Genetics Do the Parent Have?

I hope I can get somewhere with this, I'm trying to figure out the genetics of my corns and have come up with a few things but i know there are more to be uncovered, that's where i would like eveyone's input...good or bad....so here we go.
I have a pair of corns...Venus and Earl.....background unknown..both amel, Earl has more of a peachy saddles and whiter background and Venus is a normal looking albino.
I bred them this year and now have 16 beautiful hatchlings.
what I do know...
all albino gene
out of the 16...
4 snows with one being thw whitest of the 4 almost like a frosted look to it ( first pic)
1 stripe (2nd pic)
2 motley-ish/stripe no belly pattern
and one that i don't know what to think, the background color is more like cherry w/ the saddles being darker cherry and no belly pattern. i want to say it looke more like a pastel.--3rd pic middle snake
and the rest of them high white.
with that being said...i know the parents have amel, anery, motley/stripe and mystery gene with the pic of the 3rd one.
i need input from everybody on what it could be, i'm leaning towards the diffused but it showing up in only one hatchling, i'm confused.

I see

1 normal snow
1 amel motley (NOT stripe)
2 amels, the one on top looks like a normal pattern, the one on the bottom _may_ be motley- if it doesn't have belly checks.

Is this before the first shed?
 
I also see a Snow and three Amels.

Give the Amels two or three sheds and you should see the orange coming through a lot more. Some hatch very light and colour up in the first couple of months. That lighter cast isn't very unusual in hatchling Amels - some can be so pale that you could mistake them for Snows.

Really?! They look sooooooo washed out if thats the case. As mentioned above though it can take a couple of sheds for the color to really come into its own. I second one snow one amel mot and 2 amels (1 poss mot).
