Ok so I wanted to give an update to my Argentine B&w. Her white color on her back has all pretty much turned a yellowish/ orange color. I dont think its from the basking/ UVB bulb. It just maybe a different Morph. Maybe?....

"morph" is a term that has become so abused in the hobby community to become near useless. The technical definition of morph describes different phenotypes that arise from the variants in alleles of a single gene. Albino and anerythrism would be about the only true morphs.

However, all the species of Salvator are extremely variable, they display a broad range in patterning, colouration, scale layout, etc., much more so than most can appreciate from what is observed with in the hobby. That colouration that you observe in yours I've seen quite commonly in wild populations.
