Baby Colours

Description: Both adults were "orange" at birth.
Originated from a nice looking female rescue boa.
All 20 babies show some degree of orange colouration, but some obviously stand out.
Also shown is one with a lot of striping.
I am asking for opinions on how to see if this is a new or currently existing morph that I've stumbled upon.
Better quality pic's will follow, but any ideas as to what course of action I should take?
Thanks, Ian

 Well they look like they didn't have their first shed yet so that may explain the color. If they have shed already they still may need at least a month to clear up and show thier true colors.
Nice striper.

Thanks, and your right, the first shed is yet to happen in this picture. The colours remained when the parents looked like this at birth though, and I anticipate this to be the same with these guys.

Just an update but these guys are all doing just fabulous! All eating, shedding, and now 8 months old. The colours have intensified with age and they all have either lots of pink or a hugely vibrant red tail. They're for sale in the Edmonton area or elsewhere, but I have never shipped live animals before. I hope you enjoy the photo :)
