This is the corn I thought was a standard Amel.
Today, upon closer inspection, the part I thought was "white" turned almost gray with almost a tint of purple or something. Some other "white" is actually bright yellow.

I am both worried and excited at the same time:

a)Is there something wrong with my snake??? . Did it skin just turned "transparent" for some reasons and what I'm seeing is the exposed flesh or something?

b)It doesn't look like any morph I saw in the book. Sort of like a cross between hypo (gray saddle border) and amel (red eye). Is it even possible?

You mean like a HypoMel??
Yours is an amel, a high white one at that, possibly even reverse okeetee. nothing wrong with it. As it gets bigger, the white parts will get whiter.

Still gorgeous though.
