I haven't gotten a picture of her yet but a little while ago I got a female alterna phase from an unknown breeder(wish I could remember the breeders name but it escapes me)and I have yet to see another example of her pattern whether it be online or at local expos. She has absolutely no red in her bands at all and her greys are perfectly clean with no speckles or anything. All of that explanation to simply ask, which is more preferable among keepers, the classic blairs phase or the alternas. Ill try to snag a camera soon to get some pics up.

Well, there are many keepers that enjoy and greatly appreciate both types, and also intermediate phenotypes(visual looks) as well. Sounds like you have a nice, clean alterna phase there. Some pics would be great when you get a chance!

Does it look like this?

I love the Blair phase the most, but this is Alterna phase (Hwy 227) is one of my favorite snakes in my entire collection.

I like 'em all. Blair's, speckled, alterna phase, gray, black, buckskin you name it. My collection has a little of everything. This East of Sanderson is one of my favorites, and she bred for me the first time this year:

This Christmas mtns. female was also a big favorite until she died on me suddenly:
