Colorless Ringneck snake?!

I caught a ringneck snake today that has a white belly and ring? I have never seen or heard of one without at least some yellow.

I have caught many of them when I was younger, and now only occasionally. They have always had bright red, orange, and yellow bellies.

 
Lets get some pics up!!! this could be cool. they will gladly take earthworms and greenhouse frogs.

I guess I better stop being lazy and put up some pics.

This snake is gladly taking nothing, and I have offered an earthworm, greenhouse frog, small Anolis sagrei, and there is a greenhouse frog with it now. I have also put in a couple of small blaberus nymphs, just in case, and to feed the feeders.

I have never had much luck feeding ringnecks. :(

I will release it if it doesn't acclimate soon.

 
It looks like it is going to shed soon. I guess that is one of the reasons that it won't eat. I have taken out everything but the earthworm. Does anyone know how long the snake can fast for if it is due to shed?
