Me neither, but when I've bred normal (Okeetee) corns, some show up with an irregular blotch pattern like this. I personally wouldn't read too much into it, as all "typical" snake patterns have natural variations. If you are thinking about breeding this particular one to achieve "the look" I'd advise you NOT to. It would be faster & prove more successful (since you know nothing of this snake's background) if you just bought a visual "aztec" & went from there, so as not to produce so many "unwanted normals". (and don't misunderstand me, I am a fan of "normals"...but there's only so many the "market" will bear...I hate to see animals of any kind sold too cheaply, as they tend to be disrespected, like cheap throwaway toys.)
