What morph is he/she?

This is Muscles, my pride and joy. I'm suspecting highly that Muscels is an Upper Keys, or a Rosy rat snake, because I'm SORT OF in that area (maybe a little too far up, SW Florida area, Port Charlotte) and his ventral doesn't look like that of a Carolina.
I know he is a "normal" but WHAT kind of normal? He's not a Miami because he has more color, which gets darker as it goes down, but his head is bright orange. He's not a Carolina because his ventral is the same color, it doesn't go into orange as it tapers.
I'm unsure of his exact age but I know he is a WC09
So here are the pics, help out as best you can. I'd also like to know how big Upper Key's get, because I heard they are smaller.

I have to get one of his ventral, which I figured I'd do after his shed (which should be any day now) so it's more of his "true" colors.

:shrugs:What is he? Thanks!
 
He is a plain ol normal cornsnake. A decent looking one at that, but just a normal.
 
Muscles looks to be a normal colored corn snake. Which I happen to think are some of the most beautiful morphs. Beautiful snake.
 
I am gonna guess a very pretty normal. There's too much black to be a hypo and dark eyes show it can't have albino in it. But, I would wait for some more opinions. Either way, gorgeous! :)
 
Lol but what IS a normal? I know he's a normal, but I mean Carolina, Miami, etc. Normal should have a different name. Sounds too blah, especially for snakes like Muscles :)

Some people that don't care to use the term "normal" use either "wild type" or "classic".
 
The Locality would be extremely hard to say Violet. I can go down the road here in AL and catch several different looking cornsnakes. Some look unquie and some look like a typical normal, some even look a little Miami-ish. So unless the breeder kept up with where his or her stock came from, (I think Kathy has a line from SC) it would be near impossible to tell the locality.
