What morph is this?

An online friend of mine was sharing pictures she took at repticon today and she showed me this gorgeous corn but couldn't remember the morph color aside from a motley.

Anyone know by the pictures what this beautiful baby was?

Is it a colour true picture ? For me it looks like a amber motley when the eyes are not red - if the eyes are red it could be a amel or butter motley (depends on the real colour)
 
So many hypo-types and hypo-type combos have similar looks, it's impossible to give a definite answer just from visual appearance.
 
I own a 5 month old albino/normal

It looks a lot like mine and mines an albino normal...i think:shrugs: anyways you might not want to take my advice after all i am a 14 year old boy.:grin01:
 
Mabe so but here's my normal/albino keep in mind he is 5 months old also his name is Cola

That's obviously a normal Motley T-man. The fact that it has the yellow in the ground color tells me it's likely a caramel based morph.

T-Man You're 14 yrs old and literally know very little about corn snakes and how to ID them. I suggest you learn more about genetics and how to ID them before offering advice on what morph they are. I can't 100% say for sure that's what it is, but I'm quite familiar with the different morphs and am pretty confident about my ability to ID the morphs. Hypo DOESN'T make them yellow. It only causes a reduction in the melanin which leaves a lighter brown colored corn snake if it's just hypo. Considering that I breed corn snakes and have over 50 at the moment, I think I know enough to be a bit more confident of my ability than just making a guess.

The OP's snake does NOT look like a caramel motley in the photos. The color is far too true-orange. Yellow in the ground color is not only seen with caramel. Caramel is a type of anery. They lack the red pigments leaving behind yellow and brown.

The lighting in these photos is poor, but in the first photo you can see that this animal has proper orange coloring in the saddles.

OP, can you please provide us with photos in natural light so we can get to the bottom of this for once and for all? Please include pictures that are close ups of the head, as well as the whole snake from the top.
 
I don't see the orange you're seeing. I see a caramel type morph. It may not be just caramel but it's caramel based. Actually the more I look at it, it looks like a gold dust motley. There's a photo on Iansvivarium that shows a gold dust Motley that looks very similar though as you said, the lighting is off a bit but it looks a lot like this one.
