Motley

The oldest pattern morph, discovered in 1977. Motleys have no ventral pattern, while the rest of the pattern can be highly variable sometimes even resembling stripes (these have no influence from the stripe gene), but all have merging blotches. Can be combined with any colour morph.

Inheritance: Recessive to Normal, dominant over Stripe

Allelic to and dominant over Stripe which means if a cornsnake is het Motley and het Stripe it will be visually a Motley. The only way to tell if a corn is motley or het motley het stripe is to breed with a known stripe, and get stripe hatchlings.
