Need help figuring out my corn snakes morph

I got a cornsnake recently and was told she is a Bubblegum Cornsnake. I looked up that morph but to me she doesnt really look like that? In person she is a SUPER bright baby pink, my cameras dont capture just how pink she is sadly. Just wanting to get some help from a breeder or something to determine.

I was going to tag Caryl but she is already replying right now. That corn is a lovely shade of pink! I can’t wait to see what Caryl says!

What a pretty girl! Bubblegum is a selectively bred morph. It’s not a genetic term per se. I saw it listed more in the past, maybe 12 years ago, before the hobby figured out what caused some of the coloring. It took a lot of hard work by a lot of people to separately identify various hypo alleles, and red enhancers.

Genetically, your snake is definitely Snow (Amel, Anery) plus Motley. Motley may be homo or het Motley/het Stripe; can’t tell by looking if an animal is het or homo Motley. I would say your animal is also Red Factor (RF). A single copy of RF is sometimes called Coral, 2 copies may be called Salmon.

Btw, what’s her name?

Would you say her morph is pretty common then? or does it just depend

Snow Motley is common. Red Factor Snow Motley is harder to find, but findable. Really nice, really saturated color like that, especially in a female? NOT common.
