you can tell from the positioning of the striping. A genetic stripe is 4 lines, two on the dorsal and one either side. A striped motley is the motley pattern in the centre of the back that has joined, and the remaining 'stripes' are actually the ground colour.
the back is botley but the lateral patterns is striped. im 90% eeji will tell you 100%
its either one or the other, it can't be both. if a corn is carrying motley AND stripe, then it will be visually a motley. The striping on a motley has NOTHING to do with the stripe gene, so a stripey motley may or may not be het stripe - the only way to know is by breeding trials.

a stripe motley is just what some people call a motley which has an unbroken or nearly unbroken stripe down its back just like yours they do it to make more money when genetically its just a motley !! most of the decent motley stripes ive seen have been het stripe aswell so you may be lucky ! btw both the snakes are stunning
