A Coral Snow should have very pink colouring on the saddles and white around the rest of it, with every shed the pink should become more noticible, the pink should have an almost pearlesent sheen to it.

the easy answer is you most often can't, especially with babies as regular snows are usually nice and pink too. The only 100% way to know is if both parents are homozygous (not het) hypo, or to breed to a known homozygous hypo and get all hypo out.

Ahh I see.
Well the parents are only het for hypo so I guess I wont know.

He is rather pink though, as you can see in the picture.
But I'm not that fussed either way, he's a nice snakey and if he's not he's at least ph hypo lol :)
