new snakey bakey

hey guys, just showing off my newest member of the family

just a question, would i be right if i called her a 'hypo coastal'? the photo doesnt do the justice.
In the sunlight she is prety much yellow.

Hypomelanism is a reduction in dark pigment - that animal shows quite a lot of dark pigmentation...

...I think you would be misrepresenting the animal if you called it a Hypo...
