Mojave has a lot of polymorphic variations to it.
Looks like a fairly standard Mojave to me. Maybe it has a little influence from the het hypo showing through.

Yeah, I think I agree that the het hypo influence is present here.
Also just like to say, I’m not used to seeing mimosas with much, if any pattern on the sides. Dorsal stripe yes, but not the keyholes. Definitely interesting. Good looking snakes!
Edited to add, I know champ had a lot of variation, I just don’t see a lot that have pattern that aren’t in certain combos. I just like it so wanted to point it out

If I had to guess, I think there is a strong possibility that your Mimosa has Enchi in it and that is why it has so much pattern and why the Mojave baby looks like it has an orange hue to its coloration. Did any of the other babies look like they could have Enchi present?

Everything else looks pretty standard for what i expected

Can you post pictures of the other clutch mates? Grey has a point on it possibly being a low expression enchi. I didn’t really think of that earlier.

I would get the champagne tested for enchi or that baby for enchi.

Looking at the top picture of the clutch I am even more convinced there is Enchi there. The one Mojave at the top right screams Enchi Mojave and the other doesn’t. Just Mojave. Also I can see one Mimosa baby that is buried in there that has a ton of dorsal pattern and darker color, where the others don’t.

The darker baby i think is just champange and the whitish snakes champange mojave
Your baby is definitely enchi mojave, I had one in my first clutch and they are unmistakable.
